On start up..it always wants a pass word or to skip it... Can This function be bypassed???

System registration.

Under System properties. general, Registered to***************

Can this be changed???. I've just bought the machine S/hand.

I like my old 2000 pro software!! I see Xp allows a 2000 pro type set up. Should i stick with this or learn about Xp fully??? Might get more into digi photography next year.

try this...

goto control panel, then user accounts, click on the advanced tab, and untick "require user to ctrl-alt-del......"

if you mean the appearance this can all be set up by desktop/rightclick/appearance - select windows classic, if you want to do the same on the taskbar right click on a blank part of the taskbar/start menu - select classic start menu.

I am the same as you - I hate the default XP appearance -I think its a bit "tellytubby".

Windows 2000/XP

Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE).
Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows NT\ CurrentVersion.
To change the values of the RegisteredOrganization, RegisteredOwner, or ProductId, simply double-click on them.
