| 1234230 | 2011-09-28 06:32:00 | This should be an easy one, I've just forgotten how to do it. I have setup an old pc as a home theatre media centre. Just added a wireless card to connect to my home network. Trying to get around the password barrier. It's running Vista & the other systems are XP, Vista & Win7. |

| 1234235 | 2011-09-30 00:14:00 | Auto login for passworded sytems: 1) Set a password 2) Click Start --> Run --> control userpasswords2 From there, untick the option requiring users to enter a password. It'll prompt you for the password of the user account you want to auto-login as. Done :D |
