    I have updated my Win2000 system which I alone used to WinXP Pro, with multiple users recently. As the sole user of W2000, I had the system autologon. With multiple users, set up, I want XP to demand a password before booting to the desktop, but it still assumes I'm logging on and boots straight to the desktop. If I log out to the Welcome Screen, a password is required by each user to enter the OS. I've tried forcing passwords in the Users control panel but no luck.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks, David A. Hamments
