Single user in XP

[Guest]

I have installed XP and want the system to boot up with out asking for a user
or password. Is that possible, and how?

Hi

If you want to Autologon onto Windows:

Download TweakUI from
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx and
when installed go to Programs>Powertoys for Windows XP>Tweak UI - then go to
Logon>Autologon

It' s there. Really. Just use the right powertoy. It' s called TweakUI.

This works without any 3rd party programs if you have only one user
account which has no password set and use the welcome screen instead of
the CTRL+ALT+DEL one.

You may also want to disable in control-panel -> power-management ->
enhanced -> disable "Ask for password after resume from standby".

Perhaps the words don' t exactly match your version of Windows, I just
translated them from my german XP.
