Default Windows XP - Start-Up

When I turn on my PC in the morning she fires up and after a while I then have to click on a user choice e.g. David Lock or Guest and then it loads up.

Well I don't want this. I just want to turn it on and leave it to get ready so I can go and have my first coffee of the day and then come back and it's ready and waiting.

But how do I do this? I looked at "User Accounts" but can't find a suitable option.

Any one know?

You took your time

Thanks, I'll try that and reboot. So I take it that the PC will then bypass the option completely and won't ask me to press the "David Lock" option?

It is in the user account section. There is an option in there as to how they are displayed and whether you need to have them on or off
