Windows XP SP3 removed username from CTRL+ALT+DEL


Recommended Posts

Hi, I have installed Windows XP SP3 on all my client Windows XP workstations

through WSUS. When a user locks his workstation using CTRL+ALT+DEL and tries

to unlock the workstation, their username is blank. Before SP3 the username

was there and the user only had to type their password. Is there any way to

get this back? Also their username is not displayed in the lock dialogue

box. It shows no username at all.

 

Thanks for any help.

How interesting (even uncanny) that within the last 15 minutes two of us

have posted SP3 problems with usernames.

 

Although my problem had to do with e-mail and not "unlocking a workstation".

See subject titled "E-mail username & p/w had to be reentered after XP SP3

installed".
