When I start my PC it used to just open windows XP directly, but for some unknown reason it has now begun to take me to the welcome screen where I have to click my account then it will start windows XP, I'm the only person on this PC so I would like to bypass that screen and have windows XP open directly when powering up the system. I have tried the user accounts menu, there is nothing available there to prevent that welcome screen from appearing, besides switching to the log in with a password screen. Thanks for any help someone can offer =)

no, that first suggestion did not work, even with no password unchecking the welcome screen in the user accounts menu will still take you to the log in with a password screen, I tried it and I didnt have a password, which was interesting because I thought I would be locked out of my computer but somehow it opened by just typing random things, now I have the password and still have the welcome screen that I want to bypass. I know it can be done, it used to work on this PC before, although I didnt know how it performed that action and the PC's at my school also will start up without the welcome screen.

Go to Start.
Control Panel.
User Accounts
Click "Change the way users log on and off"
Uncheck "Use Welcome Screen"
As long as you dont have a password it will automatically log in.
