Check the below;
Method 1
=========
You can configure Windows XP to automate the logon process if your computer
is not
part of a domain.
1. Click Start, click Run, and type control userpasswords2.
2. Clear the Users must enter a username and password to use this computer
check
box. Click Apply.
3. Enter the user name and password you wish to automatically log on with,
and then
click OK.
4. Click OK again and you're all done.
This feature allows other users to start your computer and use the account
that you
establish to automatically log on. Enabling auto logon makes your computer
more
convenient to use, but can pose a security risk.
