Hi

I have windows media centre edition, when i start my computer up windows starts to load and then waits for me to click on my Account name to log into the actual windows desktop etc... is there anyway of disabling this so when i start my pc i just loads into windows straight away as i used to do on xp pro ?

Cheers

EDIT... i also have in accounts option, guest account which is disabled, and this ASP.NET Machine A...'s account <----- Whats this for ? ? ? ?

Cheers

well i always delete them lol never did any harm, i only have one account which i my main admin account and the guest account turned off

EDIT

The aspnet_wp or ASP.NET Machine Account is created when the Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 is installed onto a Windows XP computer. The user is created to run the asp.net worker process used in Microsoft's Internet Information Services, which allows ASP.net to run on your local web server (This is pretty much its only use, it is not used to run normal .net managed executables). There is not a need to worry about this user's presence; it was not created in malicious way.

You can remove this account, but it is vital if you do asp.net development work on your machine.
By removing the account you may find your ASP.net projects will no longer function correctly.

It is possible to recreate the user by issuing the following command from the run dialog (changing the framework version number as appropriate)
%systemroot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_regiis.exe /i
