Computer Will Not Start At Welcome Screen With All Accounts Listed
 
1. Installed winxp pro, clean fresh. Told xp to always log in automatically to administartor account and password was blank.
2. I added users and now the machine and still always logs into the administrator account automatically and I don't want that.
3. I use the welcome screen and fast user switching.
3. I created a password for the administrator account. Sometimes it wont log in to adminstrator and then shows all the users except for administrator which is great and that is what I want and sometimes the machine freezes.

Of course in the control panel, users I see the administrator and can not change the username of that adminstrator. I went into computer management to change administrator to another name just for testing purposes. still no luck with having all users come
at the welcome screen.

I assume there is a reg issue I need to fix and or in the computer management, user section? ?
