    Hello

    Can anyone please remind me how to log on to an XP pc as Administrator at the Welcome Screen? This is the one that shows icons for each user to logon locally rather than a network logon. Administrator doesn't appear here but I understand there are some keystrokes which will make the icon appear?

    Cheers!

    If it's XP Pro I think ctrl+alt+del,del will bring up the classic logon screen. XP Home admin logon in safe mode only.

    Tap Control-Alt-Delete twice at the welcome screen (Pro) or download TweakUI to add the admin account to the Welcome Screen.
