When I got the new computr with XP Pro, I set myself up
as administrator with no password. I was able to boot up
seamlessly to the desktop without the computer asking for
a password. Somewhere along the line, that changed,
maybe when I downloaded one of the security patches from
Microsoft. Now when I boot up the logon screen appears
asking for a password> I just hit enter and the computer
continues to the desktop. How do I reset it so I do not
get the password login screesn.
