KeithA45 Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Hey guys,I'm the only person on my Compaq Presario Desktop with Windows XP Professional and I don't have a password to login, so I want my computer to automatically log-in as me on reboot.I'm going to be using this computer for downloading and remote access, so upon a power failure, I want this computer to just automatically boot and log-in every time. I've handled everything else, I just can't find the setting to have me skip the welcome screen and automatically log-in.Help!Thanks, - Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click Apply. Enter the user name and password you wish to automatically log on with, and then click OK. Click OK again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
