I have had this problem for almost a half a year and its really starting to bother me now. When I turned on the computer, it would bring me right to my desktop. But awhile back it asked to log in. I can exit out of it and it will take me to my desktop but it wont save certain things. Its really not that big of a deal, but it annoys my family and they just want the computer to go to the desktop and not have to worry.

Windows 95/98*Grinler (If you don't have multiple users configured):

* Open Control Panel, and double-click on the Network icon.
* From the list entitled Primary Network Logon:, choose Windows Logon, and press OK.

* Note: If this doesn't work, make sure you didn't initially configure a password for yourself. If you did, Windows 98 will always require it. Double-click on the Passwords icon in Control Panel to choose nothing (leave it blank) for your password.

Let us know if this fixes your problem.

It pays to lurk at BC. I had the same annoying problem, now it's fixed. Thanks, Joshuacat! :thumbsup:
