When I try to logon I get the Logon Message:

System could not log you on. I have got it to the point
where it automatically brings up the Aministrator. From
there I enter my logon name and the password and then I
can get into the system.

How can I fix it to automattically get onto the system as
before?

It sounds like someone tried to setup XP to automatically log on the
default Administrator account.

If TweakUI for XP was used, the password was entered incorrectly on the
setup screens for this feature.

If "control userpasswords2" was used, something was done incorrectly.
Setting up automatic log on this way is a matter of unchecking the box that
requires a password and then selecting the user account that XP should load
at startup. Sounds like they may have selected Administrator here.

If this was XP Pro, that would be fine. However, in XP Home the default
Administrator account is only available when you boot to Safe Mode. The
automatic logon would fail if the system was booted normally.
