Hello,

I have just migrated to XP.

I have 2 users on the computer & I need to set one up as the first logon ( ie upon startup). Currently the wrong one is automatically loggin in.

W2000 has this option , but I am buggered if I can find it in XP

any ideas??

thanks

Go to (User Accounts) and make the 2nd user ,Administrator. then Delete the first User Account. Reboot , Then re-add the First user as a regular user . So all your doing is switching the order of the users .. whewww hope it makes sense :/.. P.S. I Dont personaly use Xp tweaks it can screw your windows up

Core i7 2600k 3.4ghz @4.5ghz

Thanks but I wanted to keep both users as administrators,

any way I found a registry key that has a value for default login user

& I changed that & it works

cheers
