How do I change XP GUI

[joelm3103]

Thanks.

I found the problem. It is that The computer Administrator is a member of a domain and not a workgroup. When this happens there is no normal login screen , only the ctr-alt-del screen. this link led me in the right direction.
I went thru this on another pc a while back and remember after changing from domain to workgroup I was locked out of windows and had to hack back in with a boot disc. so i am reading up on this here and here.

Glad you found it mate . Sorry couldn't be as much help as needed but I did learn a few points .
