I have Vista Home Basic installed and I have only one user on the
whole system - me - is there anyway I can stop the login screen from
appearing on boot and it just goes straight into the desktop.

Hi,

Sure, same way is in XP. Click start and type 'control userpasswords2', then
hit <enter>. Click continue at the UAC prompt. Click on your account, then
uncheck the line that states "Users must enter a name and password......".
Click apply/ok and follow the prompts to set up the automatic logon.
