Startup without having to select user

[flingz]

In windows xp everytime I start up my pc it makes me click on the icon for my name even though I am the only name to choose. I am the only one who uses my pc and im just wondering if their is anyone I can have it just boot all the way up and bypass this screen?

I believe if you disable "fast user switching" in administrator services it will boot directly to your desktop.

'Control panel' to 'administrative tools' to 'services'. Right click on fast user switching, click on properties, choose disable in drop down box and hit apply.

I think that's how I did it. It's been awhile. Let me know if it does the trick. :)
