I have had my computer for several months and it Started without stopping for
a logon screen. I just installed a HP all in one printer and now when I start
up I get a stoppage for me to logon. How do I remove this logon screen and
start up with this stoppage

1) Click Start, Run and enter CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2
2) Select the user account you want automatically logged on (this avoids the Administrator account being selected by default)
3) Uncheck Users must enter username and password..........
4) Click Apply
5) In the next dialog, enter the password, if any, for the account you chose in Step 2
6) Ok your way out

Hi,
Step 1 works fine and brought up the "user accounts" menu with only two
options.
The unchecked User must enter ..... or the advance tab.  Everything else is
grey.
Would appreciate you help.

It's Andy,
