    As title. I dont want to have to press this after a reboot.

    Also win xp professional keeps asking me to login. This is pointless as i have no password set. How do i set it to automatically log me in as administrator?

    First go to Run and type control userpasswords2
    In the box that opens untick the "Users must enter a user name and Password to use this computer" if ticked.
    Secondly go into the Advanced Tab and untick the box in the Secure Log on section that says "Require users to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete"

    You have to enter two words....i am sure that you must have only tried entering userpasswords2 earlier...

    You do not have full administration rights Question, that is why you are not seeing the tick box.
    The pic below is what you would see if you had.

    Yea i managed to disable the ctrl-alt-del check.

    I thought i had full administrator rights? This is already the adminstrator account. Whats wrong?

    The account may be Admin but you only have Debugger User rights which is vastly different to full on access that an Admin user would have.
