Log-on to open Win XP problem

When I reboot a "Log on to Windows" screen comes up with another screen "Log on message" which says "Unable to log you on because of an account restriction" When I click OK and go back to the "Log on to Windows" screen and change the password from Administrator to owner I am able to log on. Would like to remove the log on completely as I am the only user.
