151558	2003-06-10 09:16:00	My WinXP computer has suddenly taken to returning to the initial screen (where you click your account profile to enter Windows) after a period of inactivity. I can't find how to stop it, mainly because I don't really know what I'm searching for. Can anyone help? Thanks.	djom (3990)

151560	2003-06-10 09:23:00	No, I don't have any screensaver enabled. I've also disabled my power-saving options.	djom (3990)
151561	2003-06-10 11:22:00	Any Windows updates installed recently?	tommy (2826)
151562	2003-06-10 12:15:00	Nope, can't think of anything at all that I've changed.	djom (3990)

However i think you have checked all the settings mentioned in it, but mainly check that, that "tick" isn't in the screensaver setting by default for: "On resume, display welcome" as Mike suggested in the thread below. Here (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) Another thing that does make this happen is if you are using a password, i found that when using xp home. You or another user haven't added a password recently?

151565	2003-06-11 10:41:00	Strangest thing... I've been having this problem for several weeks and now it hasn't happened at all since last night. I've racked my brain trying to think of anything I've changed but I can't think of anything. Maybe all I really needed to do was post on pressf1 ?? I'll keep an eye on it and keep my fingers crossed. Thanks for your help.	djom (3990)
