When Win98 first boots up the Network login screen does not come up. After doing a "Start>Logoff" I get the screen to logon and can get on to the Network just fine.What is stopping it from asking for the password the first time? I have gone threw the "regedit" and made sure everything was correct there. I have compared it to other PC's in the office and it's setup exactly the same. This problem has been going on for sometime and in the mean time we have moved to a different building and it's still happening here.
Help!

Are you sure about the registry? Many times this is solved by deleting the following entry in the following registry key:

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

AutoLogon=xx

Also, Click Start,point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click Network. Click the appropriate setting in the Primary Network Logon box, and then click OK.
