Mike, I've used this on XP systems in the past. Click to expand... Open Regedit and go to the following subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon Change or add the following values to Winlogon: AutoAdminLogon: REG_SZ: 1 DefaultUserName: REG_SZ: <username> DefaultPassword: REG_SZ: <Password for username> DefaultDomainName: REG_SZ: <Domain for username> DontDisplayLastUserName: REG_SZ: 0 Restart the system
