I just reinstalled XP on my computer, formatted the whole
drive and all that fun stuff, but now XP wants me to log
in every single time I start my computer. I am the only
user on the computer, and I am the admin, so shouldn't it
automatically go into windows without me having to click
on my name every time I want to get in there?
I tried to edit the registry, and it worked for one
reboot, but now it has come right back, and I'm not sure
why. The registry hasnt changed since I messed with it,
but it still wants me to log in.

Any suggestions?
 
Hi

Try this:

From Start>Run type in

control userpasswords2

then uncheck 'Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer' and click 'Apply'. On the next screen - 'Automatically Log On' - delete the name 'Administrator' from the User name box and enter your account name and then the password in the next two boxes. OK your way out and then reboot your system.
