I have an older laptop (97) from work that I once used on a daily basis to logon to our network. Therefore I have an "Enter Network Password" screen for Microsoft Networking pop up each time I boot. I've tried all the "fixes", including downloading Tweak UI, but still get the logon screen complete with user name, password, and domain. I'd like to get rid of it since I never use it at work anymore. I'm also afraid it may be causing me difficulty hitting my ethernet card, which is keeping me from accessing the internet.

in the control panel /network, remove client for microsoft networks.

If you're not using your network card and aren't going to physically remove it, I 
suggest disabling it in Device manager. Just uncheck the configuration, of course 
there'll be a question mark, but no big deal. 

The first couple steps should do it... 
  
Ctrl. Panel >Network applet
Primary Network Login > Windows Logon

Password Properties
Check > All users of this PC use the same preferences and desktop settings.

Remove Passwords:
Go to C:\Windows 
Delete all .pwl files 

Go to Run > Sysedit
Open system.ini 
Delete all lines under 
[Password Lists] 
Close and Save changes

If those things don't help:

Backup the registry and/or export the following keys: 
go to Start>Run, type regedit. Navigate to: 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\current version\network\real mode net\ 
Right-click on Real Mode Net, choose new>Binary value, name it AutoLogon and give 
it a value of 01 00 00 00.

Hi rp,

Go to Control Panel / Network / change the Primary Network Logon to Windows Logon. 
 Check OK and reboot.  Your NIC cable connection is another problem..
How is it configured?

Go to Start, Find, Files and Folders, make shure that you are locating the files on your hard drive, under name type *.pwl. Exstentions pwl are assosiated with windows password. Delete all files with this exstention and empthy deleted files bin. Windows password will quit.
