    Just fixed a PC for a friend, It has 6 users But instead of showing the Welcome Screen it just logs into "user X" every time

    Any ideas?

    User Accounts in Control Panel

    "Change the way users log on and off"

    "Use the Welcome Screen"

    That should do it.

    Start > Run > and type 
    control userpasswords2

    and check "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer".

    Does that not disable the welcome screen?
