Login Screen Email Account Settings - Change Or Remove
Nov 26, 2006
On the windows login screen, right below my login name, there is a little note that says how many new mail messages I have- This however was set up by my ex-boyfriend under his hotmail account. I'd like to change it to one of my accounts if possible, (I primarily use a university based webmail account), and if I can't change it to anything but hotmail or msn then I would like to remove it.
I haven't been able to figure out where to find this setting.

I am running Windows Xp professional.Until recently my computer was working fine. But then i got GAIN from i think some codec i got online, and then my cpu usage used to jump up to 100% quite frequently. I attempted to look online as to how to remove GAIN from my computer,It has some changes to the registry which i did without making backup of it. So now my login screen will not appear i can not get into any mode, i.e. safe mode i cant restore my computer (even though i dont want to) because system restore is off

This is a pretty cool tweak to perform on AOL Instant Messenger. You will need Resource Hacker though. Get into ResHacker and open aimres.dll in the AIM95 folder. On the tree open GIFDATA>103>1033. You should see your current sign on graphic. I would suggest backing up this graphic in case you ever want to go change it back. Once you have another graphic edited to go in its place, open the Action menu and click on "Replace other Resourse..." Open your new graphic in the area given... Then copy in this info: Resourse Type: GIFDATAResoures Name: 103Resourse Language: 1033 Then click "Replace" and Save. Another cool thing you can do from ResHacker with aimres.dll is edit some of the dialog AIM uses. Open the dialog portion of the tree and costumize some of the messages and screens used in AIM.

My friend installed a video game on his HP desktop (w/Windows XP) and changed the resolution settings to some odd selection that was 756x??? - something I had never seen before. Every time he loaded the game, it was illegible. In trying to change the display settings to make them compatible with the game, he chose this odd resolution (which was now available for some reason) for the desktop display settings, and now nothing can be read on the screen.

I want to set up another email account for my mother in law on my wife's computer. I have 8 addresses so that is not an issue. I am just wondering if I should set up an additional profile on her Windows XP Home computer or if there is someway to use the same outlook express? I want it to be a clean and easy as possible.

I have a laptop and a PC that share one email address through Outlook. Is there a way to answer or file, or delete received emails on one computer and have that action done on the other computer? I end up having to repeat the deletions, especially, twice --- once on each computer.

My desktop computer has stopped connecting to the web and to my email account. Last night it worked fine; today nothing. I have checked my settings and everything is OK - IP address, etc. and my modem is configured correctly.I called my ISP techie, and he said the DSL line is functioning and I'm online. My wireless connection is obviously working. The only thing that seems to have changed is the McAfee downloaded a very large update (took about 20 minutes) this morning and installed it; after that I couldn't get on the internet or open email.I hadn't tried either before the loaded though. Could it be related to the download e.g., the installation changed some setting or messed with the registry?

I want to change from my regular email which is still Juno to a free account that I can use with outlook.
It seems with hotmail and yahoo you have to have the pay accounts to have Outlook be able to use them.
Does anybody know of any free email sites that would work and maybe some info on the differnce between Outlook Express and Office Outlook.

Is there a way to automate email account setup (Outlook) for Windows XP from workstations? We have users that need access to email at different locations. Currently the first time they logon to a machine we just go there and setup an email account, but it would be really helpful if the account would set itself up tied to the user's logon ID.

My daughter is traying to set acces to her job's Exchange Server using Outlook 2002 SP3. But had no success so she asked me to help, but I could not get it to work either. Her OS is Win XP Pro SP2.I go to Control Panel -Mail -Accounts- Email Accounts and click on to set a new account for Microsoft Exchange Server.In that panel I enter the name of the server.server. and her user name it asks to check the name and I click on and it brings up an error message thet it could not connect to the server that no connection could be established and that I need to connect to the internet. I know we are connected since it is a DSL connection she has. Also checked for More Settings but nothing in there indicates that I need additional info for a connection.I also tried to go through the HTTP set up and it to no avail. However if I just open the browser explorer and enter that HTTP address I can connect with no trouble at all to her logon page.

I am using Windows XP Media Center Edition and I would like to use my current account as a Limited user account.
I realise that I will need at least one administrator account on my PC -- so I go into user accounts, create a new administrator account, then I try to change my current account to a limited account, but it will not let me.....

I have a problem with my login account. I have read numerous posts here about similar problems but have not found a solution that works for me yet. I have three regular login accounts - mine (admin account), my wife's (admin acct) and my son's (limited acct). For some reason control panel is not available on the start menu any longer when I am logged in my account (I do have the "set program access" on the menu but when I click on it it tells me I do not have permission to access). Control Panel is available on my wife's login start menu. When I go to user accounts in my wife's control panel - my account is listed there as an admin account.
So after reading a few similar problems in this forum I believe my account may be corrupted. So I create a new account under my wife's login, which I plan to copy my settings and files over to and delete the existing corrupted one, but I cannot create anything but a limited account there. I then ctrl-alt-del twice in the welcome screen to access the real admin account to see if I can change it to an admin account. BUT although control panel is on the start menu - when I click on it, it tells me that I do not have permission to access it. Even from -what I'm pretty sure is - the real administrator's account. How can this be? I have also tried to add the new account to the administrators group in lusrmgr.msc and that doesn't work either. I have spent so much time on this I am at my wit's end. Anyone have any suggestions that might get my account back working properly or how to get a new account?

After I last booted there is no longer an "Administrator" login choice. The Administrator account also does not show on the "User Accounts" screen accessed from control panel. It does show under Administrative Tools. I am now logged in as another user with administrative rights, but need to log back in as Administrator since I do most of my work under the Administrator account. How do I get the Admin login back?

Windows XP Home edition.Recently had to reinstall in case that might be relevant.I was trying to tidy up a bit by removing some programs from start up using msconfig. Will not allow me to do so and indicatess I may have to log in with an account with admin rights. I am using an acount set up as computer admin. Do I need to boot up in safe mode to do these maintenance things?

I would like to conceal the presence of an admin account.I am not referring to the account "Administrator". User name will be part of the group "Administrators". I would like "C:Documents and Settingsuser name" to not appear, unless user name has logged in to the computer. The computer is not part of a domain.

I've got a problem with my xp... when i started it up earlier, i entered my password clicked enter and it displayed the 'loading your settings' message. It was stuck on this screen for a while so i pressed Ctrl+alt+del and it loaded in.. Only problem was it loaded, but not into my account. It was like my pc was when i first got it, default settings, none of my files ect.. (however it did have a few of the games i had on my pc before), I re booted my pc and again i entered the password, again it didn't load so i hit ctrl+alt+del and it loaded . However this time a message appeared saying something about my account and it had 'created a tempory one'..?
