Try setting the login option to - all user use the same profile. Go to the Control Panel and click on "Users and Passwords" Uncheck the box next to "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Then click on the Advanced tab and uncheck the box at the bottom of that window. "Require users to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete before logging on". I have no idea if this will work so post the results please.
