Hello,
Can anyone tell me why logging into windows XP SP2 the user name comes up as
"user" instead of the actual name used/placed into the user account (only one
user called XXX on this computer)? It’s not hard to change, but it is
annoying to have to change it when there is no "user" account. In this
environment "user" will work though. I work for a city fire department which
requires our engine computer to be properly logged on for our communications
to work.
