Borg: Thanks so much! I'm getting a "Log On to Windows" box, with Windows Home Edition
Splash
with Copyright info & Microsoft, etc.
Below that, it has the User Name Box (ie: Administrator) and the Password Box (Blank)
I have never used a password, ie: leave it blank...
When I hit the OK, I get a window "Logon Message
"Unable to log you on because of an account restriction
Borg, trust me, you fix this, I will fax you cash! Really, I hung up man, this is
worse than what my old lady does to my body parts! Ha!! Thanks for any help...
