Guest msnews.microsoft.com Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 HI, My PC (XP pro SP3) alway boot into admin account. But I never use this account so I usually logout from admin and choose the other account manual from the welcome screen. My question is it possible to make it boot directly into my personal account? Thank you in advance! Mingo
