Hi.

I recently installed Win XP Pro Norwegian from a Corporate SP1 CD (upgraded
some XP Home computers). Some of the computers have several users, and I
want the users to be listed as on the XP Home version (Welcome screen).

After upgrading the computers I have the "Win2k logon screen" with
Ctrl+Alt+Del function (Username and Password).

Do any of you guys know how to change this logon screen back to the "XP Home
version"?

Hi,

The welcome screen can only be used if the machines are not part of a domain. Type CONTROL
USERPASSWORDS2 at Start >> Run. Flip to the 'Advanced' tab and uncheck 'Require users to press
Ctrl+Alt+Delete'. Next go to Control Panel and click on 'User Accounts'. Click on 'Change the way
users log on or off and put a check next to 'Use the welcome screen'
