11/27/2006; 8:17 PM

If you've got only one login profile on your windows XP computer you can turn off the nagging login screen when the computer restarts. This simple procedure lets you specify a user with which the machine will automatically logon on startup.

  1. Click Start -> Run, and type control userpasswords2.
  2. Clear the 'Users must enter a username and password to use this computer' check box.
  3. Click Apply.
  4. Enter the user name and password you wish to automatically log on with, and then click OK.
  5. Click OK again
