You know with Windows 98, when you start it up and that window pops up, the user log in with the password? I always just press cancel and the thing starts up, I don't use different log-ins or anything.
Is there a way to get rid of this window coming up? It didn't used to, but I was playing around with some settings or something and now it comes up and I have to cancel it. Am I making sense... it's 5AM, I may not be...

Try just pressing return without a password and it shouldn't ask in future. If it continues to ask then the easiest thing to do would be to go to the Microsoft website and download Tweak UI for Windows 98. This lets you turn the login feature off by auto logging you in.

Ophecks-> listen up! you go in your control panel -> Network then under "Primary network-logon" select "Windows Logon" ..BUT this may cause you to have to slect a username and password, and that can result in some setups in windows may be lost (but no important information)

And if you have a cable modem it can cause it to stop working if you just have Windows Logon.

Ophecks......... fist of all get a crowbar...... then locate your computer tower (case), make sure you are at that login screen you want to dissapere.... then proceed in beating the hell out of the case till it simply goes away.... trust me... the login screen will not pop up on that computer again :)

Thanks for the aid, my Aphexian brothers! I'm obsessive compulsive, and I can't stand my computer having any crazy little flaws like that.

Deleted the .pwl files, A OK. If I did what Junktion said, according to that site, my LAN may have fucked up... I would have kicked your butt. :-p
