338497 2005-03-27 11:10:00 Hi forum! Better let u all know I have now moved to sunny Hawkes Bay. Seems it has thrown a niggly little prob at me :@@: I have had XP home edition for 18 mths and have never had to log on at start-up, no passwords etc, just the welcome screen, and motoring. Now, however, it demands that I log on as user on every boot up, which is not the way it was set up originally. Very annoying. Cheers all,
Tony S.

338498 2005-03-27 11:47:00 Go to Control Panel>User Accounts and double click.
There is a link for 'Change the way users log on or off'.
Click that, then make sure the box beside 'Use welcome screen' has a tick in it. Click ok.

338499 2005-03-29 09:26:00 Thanks for the try Myth, but that box is already ticked. Even tried over-riding it with Tweake Ue, but after one start-up, the log on screen returns, b..... frustrating. Cheers. Tony S. (450)
338500 2005-03-29 10:13:00 Have you try tweaking your system using Fresh UI (www.freshdevices.com) instead? I am not too sure whether it helps or not, good luck! Cheers :) Renmoo (66)
338501 2005-03-29 13:08:00 So within TweakUI, under Logon > Autologon, do you have it ticked there, with the account name (and password if set) details entered? sal (67)
338502 2005-03-29 19:11:00 Yes, have done exactly that Sal, it works for one power-up then reverts to logon screen, and exactly the same thing with Ashampoo. Thanks for the try. Tony S. (450)
