    If I lock my desktop screen, the screen will be "Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to unlock the computer ".

    I don't want it, I would like a logon textbox which prompts me to input the password.

    There is no "Advanced" Tab under "Power Options ". Would you please try it on your computer. Windows 7 please.

    I gave you the instructions link because your System Details shows XP. Try changing shut down to something else then go right back and change it to shut down. Then click on Save changes. Not when you first changed it to something else. But after you changed it back to Shut down.

    I trust you. But that is not what you show in your System Specs. You can change it by going to User CP. Click on My System under your name and you will see what I am talking about.
