Windows XP Home Edition, stand alone, no network

User logs in automatically. How to enable the login
screen/process. Thanks for your help.

Open Control Panel, open User Accounts, open "change the way users log on or
off," be sure "Use the Welcome screen," is selected, click Apply options and
then set passwords for each user account. Also, don't forget to create a
password reset disk for each user in case they forget their password. When
you set up a password for the user in the User Accounts area of Control
Panel, the left frame contains an option "Prevent lost or forgotten
passwords," that option will help you create the disk.
 
The basic login screen doesn't contain the "log in to" field. How do I get that up? And, even tho I use the login screen, can I set a user to log in with but a blank password?
thanks
