Win Prof 2000 logs straight to desktop. How do you have it prompt you for a user?

you can disable autologin. launch registry editor and set the ff:

System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
Value Name: AutoAdminLogon
Data Type: REG_SZ (String Value)
Value Data: (0=disable, 1=enable)

hope this helps.

This is another way to change the startup

As w2k starts when the blue screen appears hold down the shift key, that will bring up the ctrl-alt-del login. Then login as the administrator, go to control panel , users and check the "use ctrl-alt-del to logon" box.

Lofoff and then when the next user logs in they will be forced to login.

Go into Control Panel.
Go into Users & passwords.
Click on users must use password box.
Set your passwords for your users.

Good Luck
