did that couple of times..didnt work its fixed now just turned it on and it worked.. got another problem tho..well no so much a problem as something that annoys me..

my xp is messed up, not so much a bad thing as something that annoys me..

this morning i was on my comp when suddenly it just turned off..and for a while afterwards the internet wouldnt work..then when i went to turn my comp off usually when you press shutdown it comes up with a thing in the middle with 3 icons (shutdown, standby, logoff) but now instead it omes up with a bigger box with writing saying more things and i scroll down to find shutdown (is that not the old xp thing?) also when i turn my comp on it ask for a password now and i dont have 1,, so i just press enter but its annoying me having to do that..

any ideas how to get it back to normal? :?:

Ah yeah when you install service pack 2 it does that..or you've changed the way you log on and off.

Are you the computer Administrator?

go to configuration menu, users, "how users log on"

either you can change it back to what it used to be or you have to use a fix (i had the problem a couple of times aswell)

i suggest you google the fix or ask me for it if the latter's your problem (can't remember the name but i still have it somewhere on my hard disk upstairs) :)

no idea about the turning off/internet problem though :?

the fix it is then :)

i used a program for it (it restores the original dll file), but apparantly you can delete a key in the registry to fix it yourself aswell

xhttp://windowsxp.mvps.org/ginadll.htm

found here:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=nl&q=windows+xp+welcome+screen+problem+disabled&meta=


couldn't find the program for it so you could try doing it manually or wait for the program? :)


(remember to take a backup of the registry if you do it manually ofcourse, you never know ;))
