    After I got the BSOD, I had to restore my Dell computer using the Dell WinXP reinstallation CD. While doing so, I was asked to select an Administrator password, which I did. Since I’m the only one who uses this computer, I’d like not to have to enter a password whenever it reboots. Is there an easy way to do this?

    Follow the directions Here and you should be good to go.

    As an alternate method, you can get TweakUI power tool for XP and it has a feature that lets you set that up easily.
