Is the option not there in the users page in control panels? If not, I seem to remember that XP Pro does things differently when the pc is on a domain as to when it isn't... was it on a domain before? Sorry I can't go into more depth, I'm on my way out of the door...

I've got a new one. It's completely non-vital, but it's annoying. On my "old" C: drive (which I still have ready to take over if necessary -- just requires an IDE cable swap) whenever I logged into Windows XP or halted the screen saver, I had to type Ctrl-Alt-Del. Now on the "new" C: drive that doesn't happen. The Windows logon comes up without the three-finger salute, and when the screen saver is moused away I see the logon...but no Ctrl-Alt-Del. The "help" says to log in as Administrator, go to Control Panel and open the User Accounts. Then I'm supposed to click on the Advanced tab. Well, that's the trouble. There IS no Advanced tab and I can't figure out how to proceed. I've simply gotten used to pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del at every logon juncture. It ain't critical by any means, but I'm nonplussed as to why I can't seem to find where to get it back. Any ideas? -- Regards, Steve Erbach Scientific Marketing Neenah, WI http://TheTownCrank.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com The information in this e-mail is confidential and may also be legally privileged.
