After restore of Windows ME operating system on Compaq Presario the first time the system is booted I do not get a login screen. I have to logoff and then the login comes up. Have gone through all network settings and MS Knowledgebase Any suggestions?

See http://tinyurl.com/c55o.

Most likely resolution is to delete the following entry in the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Network\Real Mode Net

AutoLogon=xx

If that doesn't work follow the link for more suggestions.

Howdy,

There are three clients available in the Windows Networking section. Two will auto login if there is a blank password, one always asks. Client for Microsoft Networks is likely what you want. Windows Family Logon gives a login screen with the title: Log On to Windows, while Client for MS Networks has the title Enter Network Password. For the former to challenge at startup, a non-blank password is required . . .
