xp login problem??

[Darryn Ross]

Hi,

I am trying to remove the functionality of having to login into my xp system when it boots up, i want it to assume administrator and log it self in. When i try to alter the user profile settings i am missing tabs and details that are usually there e.g the 'Advanced' tab, as illustrated by help system . I cannot seem to work out how to get away from the really annoying user profile screen with the login images and names that doesn;t give you any other options but to add or change user profiles (of which these screens do not have any information regarding making the account login automatically). I have reset my admin password to nothing and this didn;t help. I have even gone inot 'Computer Managment' and edited the admin account but there were no options to make it login automatically???

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
