LOCK feature in WINXP Pro. Help please

[gf4200isdabest]

When at LAN parties, i often lock my computer to keep people from messing with it. The lock feature on WIN XP Pro is the default XP login screen that has the various user names listed and how many programs are running for each user...I want it to look like the generic Win2k or WinXP HOME lock screen where you have the old windows95/98/me looking login with your backround visible...Is there a way to do this?

isn't that "classic start menu "?
good luck

Classic menu, turn off fast user switching, and require Ctrl-Alt-Del to log on.

 

[chickendinner]

turning off fast user switching should do it....

You don't need switch to the classic start menu, or enable "ctrl+alt+delete" to logon. Like chickendinner said, you just disable fast user switching, and the welcome screen from the control panel's Users and Groups (I think) applet.

I was messing around and found out that if you install the Client, Service or Protocol networking components, you get the old logon screen and lock screen of win2k.
