Some users are now complaining that they are having trouble logging into the system and want to eliminate it. The set-up program shows both passwords as being "enabled". When I hit the space bar it asks for the password and then asks to confirm it but nothing more. How can I completely eliminate both passwords?

I would like to get rid of all of it and have it operate like a home edition, but I especially want to get rid of the login box. Is there any way to disable/delete it completely. I have WinMe on another comp, and want Win 2000 to operate like it does - no login box to fool with.

I find how to set it to log on automatically, but would still like to disable it if possible.

I have a Toshiba sat pro 6000 running XP pro which was pre installed, so no discs.Last night I downloaded an upgrade of kapersky and when it asked me to reboot laptop the following happened.A black screen appeared asking if I wanted to start in safe mode and a list of other options, I chose safe mode and the screen filled up with a long list about multi disks partition , windows driver etc.So I closed down and then chose start windows normally from the black page and it then progressed on to scanning the disc which is does. It reports there are no problems and then opens up the black page again, and again and again.I have pressed F8 and I chose disable auto start up and a blue screen came up telling me of a possible problem and to use recovery cd which I don't have. Can anyone advise on how I can start windows so that I can eliminate kapersky or do a system restore.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased XP Pro. And did all the updates online. My current version is SP3. I saw a very cool theme called XP Pro Black Edition. Here's an image. I have tried google.com to find it, but the only thing that shows up is pirated copies.

Every time I visit a website that offers themes or whatnot, it seems theres ALWAYS viruses, spyware, or adaware involved.
I installed a Vista theme onto my PC and when i uninstalled it it removed all my themes leaving only the windows classic. Unfortunately my system retoring has been turned off so i dont have any retsore points.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was running along just swell this morning, until Windows Explorer crashed. Here's the scenario. Adobe CS2 was asking for activation (I've been lazy about registering it), at the same moment I was launching opening a folder. For some reason beyond my understanding, this caused Windows Explorer to crash. A couple of moments later it was running just fine.I keep working, no problems are apparent. I restart my system, and lo and behold, my XP theme has been replaced by the generic Windows, gray bar, non-cartoony theme. You know, the type you get when you select "Use Windows Classic Style."Problem is, I right click on my desktop to change my theme back (I *like* olive green), and all of bundled WinXP themes (you know, the blue, silver, olive green) are no longer within the drop down box. Just Windows Classic.
