    It shouldn't...you should see something like:

    PICK TASK...
    > Change User Account
    > Create New Account
    > ...something else I forget.

    are you an admin of your computer?

    thanks ^ forgot to ask if it was Windows XP...I think he means like one Windowns 95 - ME how they did that "Username" and "Domain" thing. it doesnt really matter, unless you made a sep. harddrive for a account, or you are hooked up on a network. you can turn that off, cause it is not needed

    You must be set up on a workgroup. Try putting the domain in as "localhost".
