| Password login on my M200 I have my notebook closed for at least 24 hrs and when I open it up it goes right to the desktop sometimes and other times it prompts me for a password? Shouldn't it always prompt me for a password? |

| Re: Password login on my M200 Depends on how you have it set up, Rick. Check in Control Panel/User Accounts. There is a section Learn About, then Logon options. -- Chris H.

| Re: Password login on my M200 LOL! Good thing you asked, Rick. I followed the pattern and discovered I'm running Fast User Switching on this system, and I don't need to. 8-) -- Chris H.

| Re: Password login on my M200 Hmm, I didn't see anything in the Control Panel/User acounts for "Learn About or Logon Options" other than box to require control+alt+delete. But my tablet is a member of a Windows 2003 domain with Fast User Switching set to manual under Services so maybe that removed the option. Who knows. -- Cheryl D.

| Re: Password login on my M200 Using the Welcome Screen (as described in the right pane), you can require users to logon instead of just tapping their name.

Additionally, in Display >Properties/Screen Saver, you can require set password protection on Resume. Welcome screen will be disabled when the device is a member of the domain though. In addition to the resume password requirement Chris mentioned in the display properties applet, there's one in power to require the password when resuming. John |

| Re: Password login on my M200 That explains it, as a member of a domain I don't get the "Welcome" screen. It goes bye-bye as soon as I join the computer to the domain and frankly I don't miss it. No option to click on a name, gotta ctr+alt+del and type in name, password and make sure the correct domain is showing in the dropdown box. -- Cheryl D.

| Re: Password login on my M200 I already have the settings I want I was just curious about this button I didn't have. Since one of the first things I do with a new computer is join it to my domain so I can get access to updates, files, programs that reside on the server I never see what a non-domain user sees. Guess I could go log into my 6 year olds computer that is not connected to the domain (or the internet for that matter) and see what a "default" install looks like. <grin /> Course I wouldn't get the tablet features on his hand me down P-III 500. -- Cheryl D.
