Re: Skip Log on screen



Goto Start, Run and type "control userpasswords2"
Then under the users tab, uncheck Users must enter a username/pass to use
this computer"
Then press ok and Enter your username/password

Or

Alternatively, you can use TweakUI for Windows XP to do this.
See the Logon/Auto-Logon Section

The other tip of 'enabling the welcome screen' will only work if there is
only one user set up with NO password.
