(Since reinstalling my Windows XP Home Edition ):a) From a cold start-up the system loads my Administrator desktop instead of going to the usual password protected start-up page that has the 3 other family members' Log-ins.b) However, from my Administrator desk-top another user can then (only if very quick) get to the Log-in page and successfully use their PW to access their desk-top;c) after which the computer must be rebooted because switching to another account is impossible - the XP Log-in page is no longer accessible.1 person needs an answerI do too
