    I have upgraded from win 2000 pro to XP pro. When I was using 2000, I had a blank password for a login so that I did not have to login everytime I started the computer. I also was the only user at the time. I added a user to XP and set it to use the welcome screen at startup, but it bypasses that and logs into the main users account. Any ideas??
    I am new to xp. I tried looking at the windows help but thats useless.

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Thanks.

    I searched for a answer before I posted but I guess I searched the wrong text. Sorry, but thanks for the fix.

    You're welcome.

    I think I searched for "autologon" to find it. Searching is not a perfect science, for sure.
