I'm running a dual-boot system with Win 98 and W2K Pro, using W2K Pro as my primary system.

In trying to get rid of the annoying sign-in ritual in W2K Pro, I somehow messed things up so that in W2K Pro my starts up under "administrator" login. (I have two profiles: "administrator" and another under my name; both are "members of" the administrator group.)

How do I get the PC to boot up under the "waltcloud" profile and set it up so that when I start up, I don't have to enter a password or encounter that annoying "your password will expire in xx days etc" dialog box?

I heard somewhere that for routine use, you shouldn't be logged on as a "member of" the administrator anyway, so do I need to change my "waltcloud" login to another "member of" group? Your help is appreciated. I'm Windows-challenged, so please keep that in mind! Thanks.
