Hi ,
I am working on Windows 2000 Professional. During the first Boot up and
2000 login process, it tries to auto logon to a username which is not there
anymore. It stops there with a error message and then I give a valid
username and password to proceed. I tried creating a new user with the same
old deleted username, but didn't work.
I want to remove this auto login process OR change the deleted username by
any other valid username. HOW?

Auto login can be disabled by modifying the registry.
Go to the key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon and do the following:
1. Modify the String Value of AutoAdminLogon to 0
Optionally:
2. Modify String Value of DefaultDomainName to blank
3. Modify String Value of DefaultPassword to blank
As always, back-up your regsitry before making any changes.
