"new User"
I have s single PC, runnning Win 98. I must have set this machine up
3-4 years ago. I wanted to add another User/Login. The PC had a User already assigned, which was the only persoin who used the PC. I had TweakUI able to automatically log on, which allowed memory of Internet logon etc. Now, as far as I know, all I did was ask to add a New User. Start/Settings/Control Panel/Users/Add. Enter details. But now: - the basic bootup, using the original User, has disappeared, losing the auto logon/password that Tweakui privided - the dbox at bootup is completely different. Whereas it was a long shallow box, it now is a square box, with a place for names listed (although there can be none - of course hitting Cancel at bootup login time means no memory of internet logons. - the logon now requires a manual entry of password,even for the original user - If I try to enter the original User Name, under Users in Control Panel, the original is not shown, but then tell me I have that name already. The name is then shown, and can be removed. But still no auto login I would like to fix up what's happened, then be able to add a new User, without this mucking about, so that the usual user (the original that has disappeared) can auto boot Anyone got any questions, ideas, pointers about where to start looking, please? Any ideas appreciated. |
