How to make winxp logon stuff like win2k..!!

[dowxp]

i just reformatted for the 2nd time of winxp in 5 months so i dont remember how i did it. i want to make it win2k style.. thanks

 

[dowxp]

well, if this helps, i used ot be able to hit control+alt+delete, it would give me the win2k window that had shutdown logoff blah.. not the winxp one where it would directly go to applications running.

if you're talking about logon screen, you need to hit CTRL+ALT+DEL twice

if you want WinXP look like Windows 2000, set visual style to "Classic" (Control Panel >> Display >> Appearance >> Windows and Buttons >> Windows Classic Style)

ok. im talking about the:

1) the way in win2k where its just a box where u type in a username and password. you can change it back to that in windows xp. i've done it. i have forgotten =(

2) i had control alt delete to where i would do it once and would give me the 6 options or what not. its not a nessecity, but i would like it back..

To use Windows 2000 log on:
Control Panel > User Accounts > Change the way users log on or off > Uncheck both "Use the Welcome screen" and "Use Fast User Switching"

To require pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del before log on:
Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy
Expand Local Policies, then click on Security Options
Look for "Interactive Logon: Do not require CTRL+ALT+DEL", and disable it. For more security, ENABLE "Interactive Logon: Do not display last user name".
