WInXP Pro Locked out

Recommended Posts

When i leave my PC to boot and come after about then min the computer is locked with no user logged in. I see something happens on the login screen every 9-10 min, but i can;t find out what, and it locks the computer without first logging in. All i can do is hard restart. I am using classic login, without fast user switching.

Does anyone one has any idea what can be wrong.

I am using a nlited winxp pro.

You have AutoLogon = Jain, which is a user that we don't know if it has been created or not (with password or not ?) as it does not appear in the _u file and then you have Security-Screensaver Password-Protection-Enabled. I'm not exactly sure what causes your problem.

It sounds like you have screensaver set to lock the desktop but it applies before logging in as its enabled for the default profile so it will lock you out.

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop

Change ScreenSaverIsSecure to 0
