Disable log in screen?? I cant believe i cant do it!!!!

[kes101]

Hello again friends and thank you for looking. I have what on the surface i thought was a real easy problem but i am ashamed to admit that it has got the better of me. I use XP PRO and up until recently never had a log in set up. So when i switched the machine on it booted straight into windows. I recently installed a graphics card and upon restarting the system i am now faced with logging on as the administrator. Admitted its only a case of clicking on the icon(no password set up)but i would just like it the way it was. Can some kind sole please tell me how to disable the log in screen and boot straight into windows again. Please!

Thank you

go to start run and type

control userpasswords2

From there you can set a user to Autologin...

Hope that helps,
