,Hi!
It's me again, Kate. I have "with your help" resolved one problem but now I am having another password problem. When my laptop computer running Windows XP goes to screensaver and I get back to it I have no password problem. It is when I do not get back to it and the screensaver goes off and the computer goes to sleep or hibernation, when I come back it will ask for a passwork. How do I get this to stop asking for a password? Thanks in advance for any help, Kate -- Kate Galway |

Depending on your version of WinXP:-
Right click on the desk top, select properties, select Screen Saver Tab. Uncheck "On resume, display welcome screen." or Uncheck "On resume, password protect" -- TaurArian [MVP] 2005-2009 - Update Services http://taurarian.mvps.org ====================================== How to ask a question: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 Computer Maintenance: Acronis / Diskeeper / Paragon / Raxco "Kate" <maginty@bellsouth.net> wrote in message news:376473D7-16A7-49EC-A203-46168A9256C5@microsoft.com... > ,Hi! > It's me again, Kate. > > I have "with your help" resolved one problem but now I am having another > password problem.

For your described problem, back in the screensaver tab click on the Power button (or just go straight to Control Panel > Power Options). In the Advanced tab, untick "Prompt for password when computer resumes from standby" and OK your way back out. Does that fix it? |

On the Display Properties click on Screen Saver tab then the Power Button at the bottom of the window. On the Power Options properties click on Advanced tab and make sure this Check box not Checked/Ticked: Options: [ ] Always Show icon on the taskbar [ ] Prompt for password when computer resumes from standby Click [Apply] then [OK] then [OK] to close the display Window properties.

Kate, that is controlled at the /screensaver/power savings/advanced tab -> uncheck "ask for password when resuming" (?)
