For some reason I get a Windows 2000 logon interface
(where you have to put in your name and password instead
of clicking on the pictures on XP to sign in). It says
it's Windows XP (Professional) at the logon screen too.
How do I remove this interface so I can go back to the
click-the-picture and sign in way?
 
Hi Jermy!
Open Control Panel > Users Account > Change the users log on or log off

Switching > Apply Options

Hi Jeremy,

If you aren't on a Domain or have third party programs installed that
disable the Welcome Screen:

Start/Control Panel/Users/Change the Way users log on or off/Use Welcome
Screen and Use Fast User Switching.

Enable the Welcome Screen (Line 80)

The "Welcome" Logon Screen Does Not Appear

If you are receiving Gina.dll error messages:

Restore the Windows XP Welcome Screen (Gina.dll)

Right-click on your desktop->Properties. Go to themes and
change it from Windows classic to Windows XP modified.
That will get you the look and feel that you want.
