Post by: LaxMan on July 13, 2006, 04:39:16 PM
Im livin in my frat house so everyones on my computer, and fuckin with my settings and shit, right now i ahve it so they can be o as guest but they have to have me type in the screensaver password then log off and its a pain in the ass, is there anyway to make it so when they get on and the screensaver is up, that instead of goin to my pasword thing, it goes to the log on welcom screen so they can choose the account to be on?

Put a password on the account you yourself use, and the main account of the computer. Then set up the guest account, thne when you're done on your account, or have to go take or shit or go to class, just log out of the computer. Other people in your frat house can go on without a password on the Guest account, and you can use your account when you put your password in.

There is a way to do this Lax. My computer at work works the way you want yours to work. I'll take a look, see if i can get any infor there.

When you go to screen saver settings there is a checkbox that says "go to welcome screen on resume". That will bring them back to welcome screen when they put in the screen saver password
