Start Screen Inverted Upside Down / Login Screen On Everything Is Flipped
Mar 21, 2006I was just typing along in a word document when my whole screen on my laptop flipped. File, Edit etc are across the bottom and start and all those things normally across the bottom are on the top - but upside down. The mouse is working backwards as well. MAJOR PAIN. When I restart it, the Windows screen comes up correctly but from the login screen on everything is flipped. I just use that computer for word processing not the internet so I'm hoping it is not a virus. I tried restoring the system

Mar 30, 2007My friend was listening to music and then started up a game. My computer, being old and slow, couldn't handle it so it got all slow and kinda messed up. So he did something, I didn't really see what, and when everything cleared up, the desktop was totally inverted. It was upsidedown and backwards. Not only this, but the mouse was also backwards.

Oct 27, 2009as soon as i log in instead of welcome screen to choose logins i go to a dialog box where i have to give my password and usernam... i tried to change this by going to control panel and user accounts. as soon as i clicked on "change the way user logs in or logs off" i get a error as 'A recently installed program has disabled the welcome screen and fast user switching . to restore these features , you must uninstall the program. the following name might help you identify the program that made the change - KLGina.dll"
so i tried to delete i couldnt ... eventually it got deleted by software "unlocker" but as i log in again an error as "please contact system administrator as klgina.dll is missing'.. i got that back again by system restore..
User Administrator - User Login Screen
Aug 30, 2005In recently restoring my crashed machine, I noticed that when the machine was
idle, it would go back to the user login screen. I found this tedious as I
just wanted it to go to screen saver but stay within the user session. I ran
'control userpasswords2' and de-clicked 'Users must enter a user name and
password to use this computer.' (It's a home computer so not worried). Now
when I reboot, it brings up a Windows login for Administrator and says,
"Unable to log you on because of an account restriction." I can bypass that
and log in as Owner or anybody else so it's more cosmetic than anything else.Question - who is this "Administrator?" The account doesn't show up under
User Accounts. 'Owner' is the Administrator. Do I care about this account
(which appears to be hidden? Should I allow it to log in under the covers? If
so, do I have to re-click 'Users must enter a user name and password, etc."
Removing A User From Welcome Screen?
May 22, 2005I have recently installed windows XP pro SP 2 on my computer. Is there a way to remove a user from the welcome screen so that no body knows the log in name of that user. Just like the build in administrator account which is not displayed on welcome screen but one can log into this account thru the classic log in screen instead of welcome screen (pressing Ctrl Alt Del) twice?

Aug 23, 2007I really hope that someone can help me, I can't seem to log on to my laptop. I am using an XP operating system on a toshiba laptop.
When my laptop boots up, I get the standard blue screen that tells me to log onto my user area but for some reason my user area has vanished, i.e. I have nothing to click on. I normally only have one user area and it does have a password but it is not there.
If I press Ctrl+Alt+Del a "log on to windows" bos appears with my user name already but it will not accept my password.
I have tried rebooting in safe mode but still no user administrator (or indeed my own) user area appeals for me to click on either.
With nothing to click on there appears no way for me to actually get into windows.

Dec 20, 2005I recently fixed my parents� computer and while I was at it I upgraded their OS from Windows Me to Windows XP Home Edition (no service pack). After I did I got the User Selection Welcome Screen at start-up asking me to select the account I want to use (even though there�s only one to choose!). This happened to me on my own computer when I upgraded XP Pro so I thought I knew what to do to get rid of it. I went to Kelly�s Korner (http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm) and used the �Add ControlUserPasswords2 To Control Panel� registry addon to get the User Accounts 2 icon.

Jan 26, 2009I have a Dell laptop that I have tried many times to password but it sort of doesn't work.The laptop has Windows XP Professional on it, Version 2002 with Service pack 2.My husband bought it from a buddy at work who's wife wanted a laptop, but then decided she didn't like it. She didn't delete her account so it's still under her name.I have set up a user account in my name on it and passworded it. When I reboot the laptop, it goes straight into "her" account. I want the screen where it gives me the User names so you have to type my password in order to even access the laptop. It always totally bypasses that screen.
I tried setting up a dummy account and turned on the Guest account and rebooted the laptop. I STILL don't get the User login screen.I really want this to work because for 1. the laptop is being used only for backing up personal family pictures and I'd really rather be able to password my children out of it and 2. when I go to my girlfriends' house, her mother seems to think she can just help herself to my laptop whenever she feels like it. I'd logged off - it's the only way to get the User login screen - but somehow she managed to bypass it. I KNOW the only way around it is to reboot the laptop, but she swears up and down she just opened the lid and the account was open.

View 10 Replies View RelatedWindows Xp Welcome Screen / User Logon
Jul 26, 2007I recently upgraded to windows xp professional from windows me. I was not having any problems when I started the pc until after I installed the .net framework updates from the windows update site. Now when I start or restart my pc it starts with the administrator setup instead of the way it had been. I need to go to start/log off and select switch user in order for it to switch to the way that it had been prior to the .net framework updates.I tried going to the control panel and selecting the user account and selecting to change the way users log on or off and both the "use welcome screen and use fast user switching" are checked off. I am listed as a computer administrator but there is also a user account titled administrator which is also listed as a computer administrator.The administrator account is the one that is automatically opening now when I start the pc but I want it to open to the user which is me (and that is how it was opening prior to the install of .net framework).
I also tried going to start / run / control user passwords2 on the user accounts I removed the check mark from the box for "users must enter a password to use this computer". I then selected okay to the automatically logon box that popped up with my user name. I did not enter a password since I never entered or had one to begin with. I then clicked on okay..I then tried going to control panel / user accounts and then to change the way users log on and off and unchecked the box for both "use the welcome screen" and "use fast user switching". However when I clicked on okay I get a screen that states that "fast users switching cannot be turned off while multiple users are logged on. Make sure all other users are logged off, then try again." Does anyone know how I can get Windows XP to open/start that way again without having to always go to start /log off and selecting to switch users all the time?

View 14 Replies View RelatedUser Screen Resolution Resets By Itself
Sep 16, 2005I'm running WinXP SP2 with all the latest patches recommended by Windows Update.I have logged onto this machine as Administrator. I set the screen resolution to 1024x768. It should stay there unless the user changes it, correct? Well, the user logs on and at first, the desktop looks like it's going to be 1024x768... but after the desktop icons appear and a couple of the Systray icons, the screen goes blank and resets to 1280x1024. The user can set the resolution to 1024x768... and the next time they log in, it will reset itself to 1280x1024. This ONLY happens if the user is a member of the "USERS" group; if I make them a member of the "ADMINISTRATORS" group, the resolution will stay put.I would almost think it was a group policy issue, but if it is, why does it affect no other members of the group? And how did I set such a policy?

Only Windows Icon At Log-on Screen, No User Names Present, No Way To Log On!
Jul 30, 2007Dell computer from 2001. . I was on the regedit screen, and when I went into one of the HKEY_LocalMachine or one of those HKEY folders, the "Classes" folder got deleted. That's when everything kind of...messed up. Regedit stopped working (asked for an "appropriate program from the list" to use with it) and almost everything stopped, so I had to shut the computer down.
Now when I shut it down and tried to get back on, I couldn't get ANYTHING on the logon screen except a dinky little Windows logo, with no usernames, making it impossible to logon!
how the heck do I get back to the WIndows logon screen with the usernames back? Do I need a special CD I need to purchase, and is there anyway to get back the users without losing all my stuff? Please help.
