Lost welcome screen XP
Last response: in Windows XP
Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)
I have just installed SP2.
When i boot up I now get the old classic logon and password request instead
of the welcome screen.
I have gone to the Control Panal - then to the useracounts. When i click
"change the way users log on" I get an error message telling me that a
recently installed program has disabled fast change and welcome screen and
advises me to uninstall the program It also tells me that the program may be
identified by the following file C:\Windows\system32\BCMlogon.dll
I am unsure what to do from here. I have uninstalled and then reinstalled
SP2 but nothing has changed
Any advice please
Aitionn

I have done just as you suggested to the letter but the problem still
remains. I did not find any virus threat and adware wise only the usual
alligator and ibar bits.
I would appreciate your thoughts

I cannot solve your probelm, but I can add something that might act as a
clue for you or someone else who might spot this posting. The file
BCMLogon.dll has been installed by the Boradcom Wireless system. Yours
might not be wireless, but mine is. I've seen this problem since I
upgraded my Dell laptop to the latest wireless drivers. (Other vendors
use the Broadcom chipset, so your might not be a Dell.) The more
worrying thing is that since updating the driver, my laptop does not do
the proper thing on power-down with closing the lid. I haven't
finished my investigations yet, but it appears not to be going from
Standy-by to Hibernate and so it kills the battery overnight.

Go to the following link, http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm,
scroll to line 45, click "Restore the Welcome Screen-Gina.Dll Error" in the
right column and see if that resolves the issue.
If not, try the following:
The following assumes you have an actual XP CD as opposed to a restore CD or
restore partition supplied by your PC manufacturer.
Go to Start, type sfc /scannow in the run box and press enter. Note, there
is a space between sfc and the forward slash. You will be asked for your XP
CD. Be aware, upon inserting the CD the XP setup screen may appear, this is
not a part of sfc /scannow, rather it is being invoked by autorun. Simply
minimize the screen and allow sfc to continue.
