control userpasswords and control userpasswords2

Hi all-

I'm trying to set up fast user switching on one of the XP Pro clients
at the office. Unfortunately, control panel likes to default to the
win2000 interface on user accounts. I want to set it up so that it will
default back to the windows XP home view of user accounts so that we
can enable fast user switching. (And everything online says that you
can do it in user accounts, at least the win xp home edition version of
it).

I think control userpasswords or control userpasswords2 will get me to
the right dialog box under most circumstances, but both default to the
win2000 view. Any ideas on how I can change that, or is that totally
impossible in winxp pro? Any way to modify (trick) the registry to let
me do it?

.
