Hello again (when everything is perfect, I look for trouble),

Using Windows XP, a few days ago, I made some changes in my "user name"
changing it from "Compaq_Owner" to "Harold" (because I'm the owner, why not,
that's my name) and because of the following problem, I changed it back to
"Compaq_Owner" ... still not all is fixed.

Now on "Restart" I get message on the splash or logo screen (whatever it's
called), "Windows is starting up..." and it hangs there. Therefore I have to
give it a cold reboot.

After that full rebooting (complete shut-down), I get this logon message ...
"The system could not log on. Make sure your user name and domain are correct,
then type your password again..."

I then click OK, then the "Compaq_Owner" button appears on the right of the
screen. I click it and finally the desktop appears. As I said, I did change my
"user name" to "Harold" (which appears as "Harold" behind that "logon
message") and then disappears after I click OK on the "logon message".

I think I have to make some changes in Control Panel "User Accounts". My real
question is: What changes should I make so that I have the easiest logon. I'm
the only one who uses this computer and I don't want any passwords to boot up.
I would also like that "logon message" to not show up; I know it didn't until
I made that "user name" change. I'd be happy to change the logon to the
default setting (if there is one). --- Harold
