Ok I only have 1 user account created called TESTACCOUNT. I got rid of the welcome screen logon and user the classic logon box to log in. Anyways, the username that appears in the username field doesn't match the user account I have created. I did find in the registry about a default username and alternative default username. Well I change that to match the user account I have created, restart and still the different username appears in the window. Even when I lock my computer, the username doesn't match the account I have created.

Also, I can logon to my PC with both usernames and the same password.

Yet again, I logged on as Admin, changes the default username with no such luck. I thought that would've done the trick but again no.

Can anyone please help me out there? Any help would be greatly appreciated.<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by StylinLancer on 10/31/06 10:03.</FONT></P>
