Hello,

I have win xp pro. I remember doing this before but can't it this time. How can I disable the logon prompt at start up and to tell it log on automatically using the administrator account? (This is something in the control panel - not the registry). Thanks.

You can also use TweakUI. I recommend it because it gives you better control over other features too.
