Maybe I'm missing something...!?

Ok on all of my other systems that ran XP, when I choose "On resume, password protect" it pops the Welcome Screen back up but since I received my new XPS410 it just brings up the dialog box prompting for my password with my desktop wallpaper in the background. It's just a pain because if someone else needs on the guest account or something while I'm gone it wont let them log on without my password. Then they would have to log off & sign back in on the guest account. Has anyone else ever had this problem? I know at work my computer does it but I was told it's the way it's setup. Anyone have any suggestions so I see the welcome screen versus this dialog box!? It's getting on my nerves! Thanks in advance for any help! :)

    Go back to the User Accounts page. Then, the User Accounts icon. Select Change the Way Users Log on and Off, and check Use Fast User Switching. There you go, now the Welcome screen will pop up, not just the little box. Hope this helps.

    :smileyindifferent: I was so close the whole time!  I actually had that page up but didnt even think about it being the Fast User Switching!  :smileyvery-happy: Haha, thanks a lot man, I'm at work right now but I'll try that as soon as I get home.  Thanks for the help!
