froggy Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 On windows XP? A password when you turn the computer on? Go on 'Control Pannel > User Accounts' and you can create new users and passwords. I think that's what you mean anyway :huh: Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 If you want a pre windows password set a bios password that way no one can even do anything to the pc until it is typed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the login screen for windows xp? You can't go on an account unless you have the password. You also need to put a password on the default Administrator user that doesn't show up because you can just press Ctrl + Alt + Del and log in as the admin without a password... Should work, I've never seen a cancel option on the win Xp login screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
