Good Morning People.

I am appreciative of Ray's programs as are everyone else here.  However there is no program to solve my problem so I am hopeful you will provide the guidance needed:

My computer which is running Windows XP (Home) no longer recognizes me as the administrator and therefore I am no longer able to download and install Windows Updates as well as doing some other tasks.  When I go to the Control Panel and then 'User Accounts' it does show the following:  R & J - Computer Administrator (That is me); ASP.NET  Machine A... -  Limited Account, Password protected; Guest - Guest account is off.  When the computer boots up the Windows log-on logo appears but then it goes directly into viewing the desktop without requiring a password nor asking which User Account I wish to use.

So, how do I make my computer understand that I (R & J) am actually logged on?

I certainly do appreciate your assistance in this matter.

Thanks,

Jerry

Hope you remember the password you set for the R & J account.
