Yes, I hadn't selected "DAVID" and that was the problem. Thank you
for that, it is now working SANS startup screen. Excellent, thanks for
your patience and help.

Ok, I see what you are saying - how come when I boot, it is logging in
under a GUEST or someone else, rather then the ADMIN user name (which
will give me admin status)? Is there a way to change this when it
boots, that is logs in auto under ADMIN rather than anyone else?
It sounds like you are not logging in as your user name. If you
installed programs under the Administrator account, some programs do not
put shortcuts into the "All Users" profile, but only into the profile
the program was installed under, so you may not see them when you log in
under your user name. Usually you can move the shortcuts into the All
Users profile so they are accessible by any profile.
Open User Accounts again (control userpasswords2), click the Advanced
tab, under "Advanced user management" click the Advanced button, click
the Users folder and right click on your user name and select
Properties. Check the "Member of" tab to see that your account has Admin
rights.
In an Admin account, turn the Welcome screen back on (or using
Ctrl-Alt-Del). Log in as the account you want to always use. Go back
into User Accounts and uncheck the option again. Restart and it should
log in as the last login.


David,

Glad to hear you've got it back the way you want it!
