If there is only one account without a password assigned to it, XP should
just boot right up.

Click Start | Run and enter "control userpasswords2" (no quotes) and click
OK. Uncheck the box "users must enter a user name and password..." and
follow the prompts. Your system will now boot straight to the desktop

Hi Patty,
Click Start, Run and type CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2, and click Ok. Uncheck
"Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" option, and
click Ok.
NOTE For Windows XP Home, don't try to auto-login as built-in
Administrator, as you're not permitted. Once you uncheck the option "Users
must enter a user name" and click OK/Apply, Administrator account name will
be displayed in the text box. Type-in a different user name and password in
order to auto-login to that account.
