I have a single user home computer running XP Home. I finally got it set up
not to ask me to "Chose User Account" (since I am the only one) on boot-up.
However whenever the computer goes into the hibernation or standby mode it
still asks me to "Chose User Account". Again, there can only be one choice,
me. How do I get it to stop asking & turn directly on?

Thanks in advance... Bob

Two places to check:

Display > Screensaver. Uncheck box requiring a logon when the system
resumes.

Control Panel> Power Options> Advanced. Uncheck box requiring a password to
resume.

Right click on desktop. Choose Screen Saver Tab. Click Power. Click
on Advanced Tab. Uncheck prompt for password when computer resumes
