Looking for help as to how to bypass the Sign-On & Welcome screens. Would
like to turn on computer and let it boot directly to the Desktop. I've tried
recommendations from a previous posting, i.e., Run: control userpasswords2,
and followed the directions, however, when I reboot I get the Log On To
Windows screen (filled in with name and password), however, it has a Log On
Message screen on top of it stating: "The system could not log on. Make sure
your user name and domain are correct then type your password again. Letters
in passwords must be typed using correct case." I click the 'OK' button and
it proceeds to boot to the Welcome screen (the one I'm trying to bypass). I
click on my name and it then proceeds to boot to the Desktop. Appreciate
assistance. Thanks.
