I've just installed MCE 2005. I am sole user and therefore (it would seem)
the Administrator.
When boot I get a welcome screen with a square colored graphic with my name
beside it.
It states: "to begin click your user name"
I want rid of this screen so that I can boot straight into Windows.
I can't remember how I got rid of this in my other XP systems.
No password is involved.
Please help.

Thanks for prompt reply. I had looked at User Accounts but missed that
option.
First attempt the Welcome screen was replaced by the Classic screen, but
clicking CH000536 sorted everything out.
