just a quick question which i hope someone can help with,
i am using xp and want my pc to load straight to the
desktop instead of going to a logon screen as there are
no passwords etc to enter. my new pc does this but my
old one you have to click on the user, any ideas?

.. Go to the Start Menu and the Run box.
.. Type in the following:
control userpasswords2
.. now click OK
.. In the new Windows that appears select the account you wish to make the
primary logon.
.. Now uncheck the "Users must enter a username and password..." box.
.. Hit Apply and a dialog box will appear asking you to confirm the selected
users password.

Click OK.
The changes will work the next time you restart your computer.
