all of a sudden I can not log on as administrator

[Elizabeth]

I just upgraded from Windows NT to XP Pro. I have been
logging on as the administrator. When I turned on my
computer today, the administrator log on is not even an
option.. only my husdands name is an option. When I go
to control panel, accounts, the administator is not even
listed. How do I get it back and also be able to log on
as the administrator? Thanks!

Elizabeth,
If you want the Administrator account to show up as an option on the XP
welcome screen you can turn it back on using TweakUI

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp

TweakUI for XP allows you to hide users from the welcom screen. If you open
it and go to the Logon option, you can
put a check in the Show "Administrator" on Welcome screen and it will show
up the next time you log off or restart the PC.

Hope this helps

Charlie.
