. Go to the Start Menu and the Run box.
. Type in the following:
         control userpasswords2
. now click OK
. In the new Windows that appears select the account you wish to make the
primary logon.
. Now uncheck the "Users must enter a username and password..." box.
. Hit Apply and a dialog box will appear asking you to confirm the selected
users password.

Click OK.
The changes will work the next time you restart your computer.
