I would like to add two other user's on this computer.
When I boot up the user " log-on " is not there. I have
had xp running for over a year and now have other in my
house. Do I have to take this in and have it fixed or
should I wipe everything and install Windows XP pro to
fix everything. I tried to add one new name and password
as an " admin " but messed up...Sure would like some
help. Lu
 
So you go directly into WinXP's desktop, not the login screen?
Sounds like you may have used something like TweakUI. If so, go in and
uncheck - er, forget exactly what it says, but it's rather obvious when you
see it. (Somethign like automatically log in.)

Then go to the Users control panel and add whoever you want....

Click to expand...

Start - Run - the line
Control userpasswords2

There check the box 'Users must enter Username and password' and Apply.

Then in User accounts, click the 'Change way user logon, and make sure
it is on 'Use Welcome screen'
