without asking for a password, id like it to go to the start screen where you
have to log onto an account, ive tried deleting it from the user accounts
popup but the admin account doesnt show up....any help? thanks

Start
Run
Type "control userpasswords" without the quotes
Change the way users log on or off
Select to use the welcome screen
Start
Run
Type "control userpasswords2" without the quotes
Tick the box to select users must use a username and password to use this
computer

That should do it...
