How do I make winxp NOT ask for a password on logon?

[Guest]

Even though theres no password set, it still displays the logon screen that asks for a password when I boot.

Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type "control userpasswords2", and then click OK.
In the dialog box that appears, clear the Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer check box, and then click OK.

Do you have a password for your usename?

[SoM]

no i dont

[FragaGeddon]

Then that's why. Since you don't have a password to enter, then there's no point in displaying the password box.

Your best bet is to install tweakui.

Don’t install stolen software from work, you idiot.
