Hey I must have changed something in my settings and i would like to find out how to change it back. I am running Windows XP Professional Edition and I used to hit shutdown on the start menu and then it would bring up a box with buttons to click on like restart loggoff shutdown and switch users but now it is one box with a drop down menu...Same thing when i log on it is now a drop down menu instead of the cool blue screen with my icons on it and such...I need help please leave your feedback thank you

Go to Start>Control Panel> User Accounts. After that loads up check the settings for the way user log in and off. It might be in there somewhere. Hope that helps.

is he on a domain? if he is, or was, it's what is causing it. if he isn't anymore or never was, then you can turn it off. If on the other hand, he is on a domain, You will need to keep that on it.

Good luck
