Windows Key + L = Lock computer???

[BCYL]

I tried pressing Windows Key + L to lock my PC, but nothing happens... Is there something I need to do to enable this feature? I am using W2k + SP3...

I did that before, didnt like it and went back to win2k...

Going to XP is not much of an upgrade...

In W2K I think it's ALT + L or CTRL + L.

What do you mean by lock computer and how do you unlock it?

 

[SHoddyCOmp]

Im running XP Pro and windows key + L puts me out into a blue screen with the windows logo and my session with "3 Programs Running". I guess if i somehow had a password for my session it would lock it....but theres really no point, im the only one who uses the computer .

That's it! I was trying to remember what I used to do when I had 2k. But yes, it's Windows Key + L for XP. And CTRL+ALT+DEL and then Enter for 2k.
