Welcome screen showing/username with picture not showing

[Guest]

ok i use a system recovery cd to reinstalled my window xp, now everytime i
start the computer it show welcome screen and then it automatically load
window xp without showing the sign in screen with username with a pictures?
anyone know how to fix this problem that im having or anyone know KB article
about this issue?

because i remember when i bought this computer it would show username
with a picture and i have to click the picture to log on.

Now it shows welcome screen and it automatically log on. how do i
set it up to show username with the picture to log on again?

allan,
on your reinstall of windows xp, the 'automatic login' option got set
somehow; probably because you're the only user of your system (?)

this can be changed in the registry (if you 're familiar with the keys/values,
etc.); there is also a trial version of tweak manager that you can download,
install, and it can make such changes to the registry for you. you can find
an option to download at the following website:

hope this helps.

Or you can set up a new user.

or
1. Go to Start->Run
2. Type control userpasswords2
3. Check Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer

Or you can set up a new user.
