Well before I screw up AGAIN I need advice on logging in.
I just wanted the laptop to just load and not have to hit enter or use a password. Well I did get in trouble and thought I was never going to get back on.
Right now I have a password for me and it states password protected. I just checked our old home computer that also has XP Home on it and it is not password protected and it has the box checked to use the welcome screen when it loads. It just goes straight into windows and no log on. Never had any problems with it.
I have also checked the same box on the one I am working on that has my user name password protected. I can remove the password I guess and with any luck it might go straight to windows or it might make me just hit enter or bring up the screen for just the Administrator to log in and it has no password.
I have never had any problems with my other computers or even the one I am on now but they all had XP Pro on them. From what I have read it looks like XP Home is the only one that has to hidden admin on it. I did see it by going into safe mode while I was trying to get back on the normal desktop.
Can you give me any advice so I don't get locked out again????
Thanks
