Hi, Try using the tweak ui from the jfwlite site http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp This little utility will let you choose which account you wish to have log on automatically when u start your computer up. I have had this same problem on a system with xp pro with only one user account after installing the dot net frame work for sony vegas video, a editor that my wife uses. hth Cheers,James -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of chevelle Sent: Saturday, January 15, 2005 6:44 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: logging on automatically Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with this. Does anyone know how I can get my laptop to log on automatically? I used to be able to turn on my laptop, and it would automatically log on. Ever since I had someone reformat the hardrive and reinstall windows xp home, when I turn on the laptop, after it boots up jaws says jaws for windows is ready type in password and press enter to log on. When I hit enter it logs on and I am ready to go, but I want to be able to just turn my laptop on, and have it boot up then log on without me having to press enter. I'm using jaws 5.1, and windows xp home. There are no other accounts that have been created. Thanks. -- To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
