I want to make the Windows XP login as much like Win 2K as possible. I have already turned off the welcome screen and am using the user name and password box. I would like to make the users press CTRL, ALT & DEL to be able to log in. I searched the help built in to XP nad it says go to user accounts in control panel and click on the advanced tab. I do not have an advanced tab in the user accounts section. Does anyone have any idea whats wrong? Is my XP installation corrupt or am I just going crazy? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Lee.
 
2 questions :
1) is XP pro or home edition ?
2) Do you have administrator profile on the machine ? Water is not bad as long as it stays out human body ;-)
 
Sorry for not putting this is the original post, it is Windows XP Pro and I do have administrator access.

Thanks again, Lee.
 
Start, Run, control userpassword2, advanced tab, check the box for 'Require users to press CAD'
