This is for those of you that have an Win XP box with multiple accounts and you would like for it to log on automatically to a specific account. Not sure how this will work for those that have multiple Domains to Log On to, but I know it works for standard users.
1. Click Start. 2. Click Run. 3. Type "control userpasswords2" in the run box without the quotes. 4. An User Accounts box will appear. 5. Take the check mark out of the box labeled as, "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer." 6. Click Apply but not OK, you'll do that later. 7. An Automatically Log On box will appear. 8. Type in all the needed infomation to log into your account, User Name and Password if you assigned a password to it. If you haven't assigned a password to your account just leave the password fields blank. 9. Click OK on the Automatically Log On box. 10. Click OK on the User Accounts box. 11. If you typed in all the information correctly the next time you restart/start your PC it will automatically log on to the account that you selected. It will continue to do this until you disable it. 12. To disable it Repeat steps 1-5, but in step 5 put the check mark back in the box and then click OK.
