Hi I'm a bit confused, I used to be able to go straight
into windows without logging on but now have to! I find
this very frustrating and time consuming. Is there a way
of going straight into windows without having to log on?
 
if you have only one user account and no password it should go straight into
windows. if you have added a user or any password you will be presented with
the windows welcome screen.

also this info may be the cause....

When you install the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 on a computer that is
running Windows XP, and then you start Windows, the Welcome screen appears.
This screen prompts you to click your user name to start Windows.##

Notes
a.. This behavior occurs although you have created only one local user
account that does not have a password.
b.. This behavior does not occur when you install the Microsoft .NET
Framework 1.0.
