Keeps asking for password

[Guest]

I have just moved an XP pro machine from a domain. I did that by changing it
to a workgroup and by changing the way users log on to use the Welcome
screen, rather than Ctrl-Alt-Del.

However, the PC seems to have remembered the old screen saver settings.
The screen saver is now set to NOT require a password on resume. However, if
the PC gets to the screen saver, after moving the mouse, it comes up with a
message that only the user or an admin istrator can unlock. However the
keyboard is inactive. It is impossible to enter a password. How do I fix?

Hello,

look and see if your Group Policy settings allow screen saver without
password protection:

(You'll have to choose "Disabled").

Hope this will help.
