Windows 2000: prompting for password

Using Windows 2000 5.00.2195.

I have set up my laptop with no passwords at all for anyone. For years,when it booted up, the Administrator password prompt used to flash on the screen, then disappear and the PC would proceed to the desktop without any intervention from me. In other words, after I powered on, it would automatically come up on my desktop. This is what I want.

But lately, it stops at the password prompt until I hit Enter (remember - no password). How do I fix this? I see nothing in Users Control Panel or in the System Console.

Please advise. TIA.
