Open Control Panel, User Accounts. Click "Change the way users log on or
off". Click "Use the Welcome screen". The Administrator account doesn't
show there, so you should be able to select the account you want to log
in to.
Then to have it log into that account each time:
Click, Start, Run, type control userpasswords2 and click OK
Check the box that requires users to enter a password.
Click on your own account name.
Uncheck the box that requires the users to enter a password.
Click OK.
Enter your current password when prompted.
