Shutdown Screen

[Guest]

Hi. I have a new desktop computer running Windows XP PRO SP2, and I am still
in process of defining it's various features. This is a single computer, no
networks nor workgroups and I am defined as the administrator. Yesterday,
when turning the computer off, I noticed that the "standard" shutdown screen
changed from the one with three buttons: stand by, turn off and restart to a
small screen with a rolling display with the above options, plus logoff and
hibernate.
Is there a way to revert to the original shutdown screen? As I am not a
computer expert, please be as detailed and specific as possible.
Thanks, Joseph B.

Hi Joseph B.,

Open the User Accounts applet in Control Panel, click on the "Change the way
users log on or off" link under "Pick a task...", click in the checkbox
beside "Use the Welcome screen" to select it (and click in the checkbox
beside "Use Fast User Switching" to select it if desired) then click on Apply
Options button.



Regards,
