I have my window xp sp2 setup so that I use the welcome screen. When I boot
up it brings me to the welcome screen to logon. However, when I resume from
the screensaver is brings me to the "classic logon" box to enter my password.
Anyone know how to change it so that I get the welcome screen instead?

If you want the Fisher-Price welcome screen then logout. The Welcome
Screen is a login screen. You are still logged in when the screen saver
is active.

So WHICH screen saver are you using (ScreenSaver tab in the Display
applet in Control Panel)? Maybe you aren't using the logon.scr
screensaver. See:

This is a only screen saver login dialog, not a winlogon.exe dialog.
Even if you have the Welcome Screen selected in User Settings, you
always get the classic logon after screensaver.

Why is there a difference using the welcome screen and the classic
logon? I mean, the classic logon is even BETTER :D (My opinion..).
More professional like :D hehe
