RE: Cannot access Admin Logon Andy Strickler 08.06.2007 20:26:00 Yes that would work but but since the public user account does not have a password it does not stop on the welcome screen. I have since reloaded one of the units from scratch and have a password for the public account and it works great. I was hoping for a backdoor method of adding a password to the public account or a way to reach a logon from within the SC Toolkit. Thanks for your assistance ! any help is greatly appreciated.

RE: Cannot access Admin Logon chilewillie 14.06.2007 15:47:03 I have recently installed the program and have come up against the same issue. I have the same configuration as Andy. I was testing the confuiguration and now I am stuck.... I can't access the admin log-on screen. Pressing shift-alt-del twice only brings up numerous windows telling me that I do not have permissions to access the Windows Task Manager. Any help would be appreciated.

RE: Cannot access Admin Logon robo74 15.06.2007 00:16:05 I am guessing that you have removed the log off button from the start menu. If not simply log off and use control+alt+delete. Second option, try letting the computer go into screen saver mode. Hopefully it will give you the welcome screen. Third, try booting into safe mode by pressing F8 at start up. Hope these tips get you through. Should you get in, and are able to access the user restrictions, make sure the log off button is available in the user account.

RE: Cannot access Admin Logon chilewillie 15.06.2007 00:32:00 I have not removed the log off button. I have enabled the restart on log off option. The problem is when I log off the computer restarts and goest directly to the public account. There is no log in button. The welcome screen shows for a short time (with no log in option) then the public acount opens automatically. When the welcome screen is visable, control-alt-delete does nothing. When the public account opens, numerous windows denigning access to the Task manager pop up (depending how many times I have pressed ctrl-alt-del. The safe mode didn't help either. Anyway after hours of trying everything I could think of , I reloaded a fresh copy of WinXP and set everything up again. My advice is to sty away from this particular combination of settings. It appears to lock you out of admin altogether. Microsoft should warn about this or disallow this particular combination. A huge waste of time to do this.
