I used to be able to choose from users with pictures and a password.

Now I get a log on for Media Center with a user name filled in and a
password box.

I have no idea what I did to change it.

How do I change it back?

Go to Control Panel and double click User Accounts.
Click on "Change the way users log on or off".
Make sure "Use the Welcome screen" is selected.
Hit the "Apply Options" button.
Close User Accounts and Control Panel.
Log off and see if you're now presented with the Welcome
screen.

Note: Take a look at this article if you have a problem
enabling the Welcome screen.

new way to logon.
