| 806083 | 2009-09-01 09:55:00 | After a fresh install of XP Pro the startup stalls and asks for me to click on my user name (user) before continuing. I am the only one using the computer. This also happens when the computer goes to standby after being left idle for a while. The screen comes to life and I have to click on 'user' to get it going. Where do I go to disable this part of startup? David | DavidW (532) | ||
| 806084 | 2009-09-01 10:22:00 | I'm on XP home, but it may be the same. Go to control panel, click on user accounts, click on change the ways users log on or off, uncheck use the welcome screen. |

| 806085 | 2009-09-01 10:36:00 | I had this issue today at the workshop. Windows Updates creates some ASP .net (to that degree) account under the control panel>user account. You need to delete that, and restart your machine. That is one main cause of that on the XP machine at Service Pack 3. I apologize I can't give further assistance because I havent' got a XP machine here at home, but I know for certain that is a cause. Bogan's guidance would also be another catalyst. |

| 806086 | 2009-09-01 10:50:00 | The ASP.net Account is created when you install .net framework - one of the windows updates that auto install. Quite safe to delete it - Its only purpose is to allow you to run ASP.NET apps on your PC's local host web server, should you have a web server - for general home use its not required. |
