windows xp is trying to login to delected

[jamesmorris86]

hi guys, i have a laptop with xp pro on it, and when i first got it, it would log into the admin account automatically, without any password input, even thought it had a password.

so i made a new account, deleted the old one since i didnt know the password, and set it so it logs in with the login box.

but now, it still trys to login to the original accout and gives an error about the password. its not that big a deal, i just click enter and type my new user/pass in, but its a tad annoying. I was wondering if anyone knows how to change it?

Change the default auto login account to your new one.

In the RUN box enter - control userpasswords2 then untick the "users must enter a password..........." and click ok. Then enter your account and password.
