Any computer with Microsoft Windows uses the Control- Alt- Delete key combination to open the task manager, reboot the computer and use it to end programs. If your computer is a runs Linux or Mac OS then that combination does nothing.

You can password protect your computer by going in to the control panel and setting your security options. I have the control - alt - delete option on my computer at my place of business, but it was installed there by the administrator, so I'm not sure how you would get that option for a personal computer.

That key combination, as a normal procedure means only one thing: login on a Windows NT/2000 machine, it cannot be reproduced in any other kind of Windows, including XP.

It depends, u have to have the same operating system (windows XP, windows 2000, etc.) and it should do the same.

Control panel -> User Accounts, then click 'change the way users log on or off'.
If you disable the 'Welcome Screen' you're done.
