See if the Welcome Screen is enabled. Control Panel, User Accounts, =
"Change the way user logon and logoff"
Enable Welcome Screen. If the problem persist, reset the GINA using this =

When logging off by using start/shutdown on a single user machine, I =
used to get one small window with three options: Shut down, Restart and =

After installing a new printer (HP psc 2410) I now get a dialog box with =

How can I change this back to the original log off screen?

installation, but I found out how to do that by reading this forum!
