I'm using XP Pro and am obviously not a pro!
I have 2 users set up on my home system--an administrator
and another user(both me, just my split personality!). The
system logs on automatically to the user but nowhere gives
me the option to sign on as the administrator. How do I
sign on as the administrator of my own computer?! .
