Changing the way it logs on?
I install the OS on the notebook, but the user's name is called Pedro, and
not Pe, is there any way to delete the Pe and rename it to Pedro? Or, when I try to change the way it logs on, I can not change it to fast log in without a user name and password. Instead, I get this message: "A recent installed program has disabled the Welcome screen and Fast User Switching. To restore these features, you must unistall the program. The following file name might help you identify the program that made the change: IWPDGINA.DLL" Any idea what I am suppose to do here? D.M. |
