I'm afraid you're wrong. A blank password is a password
too. When prompted for a password, click OK and hey
presto! you're done.

I didn't try your method because you mentioned signing on with a password,
when windows boots, it goes to the user screen where my name is, it doesn't
ask me about a password, I just click my name and it goes to the desktop,
no passwords involved.
thanks

Dan,
I don't know what it is you're asking me to do and where.

thanks

For some reason my computer now boots to the user login in screen,
where as before, it booted right to the desktop. Can anyone tell me
how to get back to booting to the desktop and stop booting to the
user login screen?

thanks
1. Click Start / Run / control userpasswords2 {Enter}
2. Tick the box that requires users to enter a password.
3. Click on your own account name.
4. Untick the box that requires the users to enter a password.
5. Click OK.
6. Enter your current password when prompted.
