XP logins

[Ted Gervais]

I can't seem to find the way to set my XP setup to log right in from a
bootup. I realize the security aspects of having such a setup but I want
the computer to come right up to a full login for some of my applications to
be running without me around.

For the life of me, I can't remember where that setting is at??

Not sure how you plan to boot the computer without being there but here
is one way to login with a password:

Start > Run > control userpasswords2

Remove the check mark next to: Users must enter a user name and password
to use this computer.

1) Click Start, Run and enter CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2
2) Select the user account you want automatically logged on (this avoids the
Administrator account being selected by default)
3) Uncheck Users must enter username and password..........
4) Click Apply
5) In the next dialog, enter the password, if any, for the account you chose
in Step 2
6) Ok your way out
