Re: Hi question about login screen...
I remember when I had Windows PowerTools (free from Microsoft). Some where in there I remember a check box that would allow you to do that. I will try and find it for you, but I have a feeling that there is an easier way.

Found it. It is called Tweak UI (direct link to download).
Install and go to start --> all programs --> Powertoys for Windows XP --> Tweak UI
On the left hand column there are a bunch of selections, click the plus next to login and then select Autologin.
Check the box next to "Log on automatically at system startup"
Enter the username
Enter the password (if applicable)
Click apply and then ok.
DONE!!
Happy autologin!

Oh, I don't think that is ok. Let me see if I can find the Vista info for you.

1. Click the Start button, type 'netplwiz' and hit enter or click that name on the Start menu.
2. In the GUI window that comes up uncheck the "Users must enter a username and password to use this computer' box, then click 'Apply'
3. In the new dialog box that opens type the name of the account you want to auto-logon by default. If the account is not normally passworded then leave the password blank, if the account is passworded then enter the password where indicated. Click OK your way out of both dialogs.
The account must already exist before you do this. I do not recommend that you create accounts without passwords. I do not recommend that you auto-logon your 'Administrator' account, use another account name with some admin privilages if you need to. Use this at your own risk, I do not accept any responsibility for anything that happens as a result of you using this.
That should do it.
