    Default bypassing log on box

    I have the same problem that Howie*, who posted the
    problem of suddenly getting a log on screen instead of
    smoothly going straight to the desktop. Also got a
    different shut down screen instead of the three squares to
    choose from I have to do a drop down screen. I did what
    Austin told him to do**, but I am still getting both the
    logon
    user screen and the shutdown box. Any other ideas?

    I was fine until 6/2/03 when I downloaded some critical
    updates and it appears to have changed my settings
    somewhere in my computer.

    Thanks for any help...Glynnes, [email]glynnes@adelphia.net[/email]

    *I did something, no idea what, so that instead of xp pro
    just smoothly
    starting up, I have to deal with a logon screen. This also
    seemed to change
    the logoff screen from the pretty one with 3 choices, 3
    buttons, to an ugly
    dialog box. Any idea what I did or, more important, how to
    reset it back to
    the original? Thanks.

    **How to disable XP Logo checking:

    begin procedure:
    Right Mouse-Click "My Computer"
    Select "Properties"
    Select "Hardware" Tab
    Select "Driver Signing"
    Select "Ignore - Install the software anyway
    and don't ask for my approval."
    Select "Make this action the system default"
    Select "OK"
    Select "OK"
    end procedure.
