    Does anyone know a way that I can make it so when I start my computer, it logs directly into my account without bringing up the welcome screen?

    I have Windows XP home

    This isn't true... I had my new computer run like 2-3 seconds of the windows welcome screen... without changing any of the default settings. So there will be a welcome screen setup, maybe after SP2. But after I ran a "tune up" on the PC, it got rid of the welcome screen, since it just slowed down my boot up.

    Sorry though, I have no idea how to get rid of it. >.>

    1. Click Start, click Run, and type control userpasswords2. This is a shortcut instead of having to click on Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts.
    2. Uncheck the "Users must enter a username and password to use this computer" check box.
    3. Click Apply.
    4. Enter the user name and password you wish to automatically log on with, and then click OK.
    5. Click OK again and you're all done.
