Administrative blunder

I have accidently made the built in administrator of my windows XP Pro
start up when I first boot up my computer. I have all my important
settings on another user account. I realize I cannot disable the built
in administrator in order to make the computer boot up with my old
settings. What can I do? I thought about going back in time one day to
the original settings, but unfortunately that would erase 2 hours
worth of work that I had to do to install a multi purpose aparatus
(but that's another story). I am able, OTOH, to log off one account
and start the other, but it is a waste of time.

Please help.............Andre
