Does anyone know the key combination to getting the administrator login to appear on the login screen without going through safe mode? I don't have to access it that much and forgot it. Thanks!!

Run registry editor (Regedit) navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Microsoft | Windows NT | CurrentVersion | Winlogon | SpecialAccounts | UserList

From the right pane, create a DWORD Value name "Administrator" without the quotes and give a value data "1", again wothout the quotes.

Logoff or restart Windows.

You might also try CTRL+ALT+Delte twice. This will give you the traditional login box where you type Administrator and its password.
