Re: Windows Logon

Mr. Ramesh,

The first solution did the trick. I followed the instructions and went into
the registry and made the necessary modifications and rebooted my computer
and presto it now gives me the logon screen that I wasn't getting before.

You made it too easy and your assistance is more than appreciated.
