Repeated message w/ system specs? -ACID Product Family

Subject:Repeated message w/ system specs? Posted by: mosspa Date:5/3/2006 2:13:20 PM I have quite a few utilities that get run from my start menu in Windows XP Pro. I have deliberately set all of the computers in my studio to boot without forcing me to pick myself from the user dialog screen (I am the only user). After installing Acid 6, I now have to deal with the user dialog screen. This forces me to wait until Windows loads so that I can select myself as the user, before I can leave the computer while my start menu programs execute. Why does Acid reconfigure my log on to Win XP? Also, how can I get my computer to stop doing this and just to boot directly to Windows without forcing me to select myself as the user? Thanks in advance, John

Reply by: MarkWWWW Date:5/4/2006 5:26:05 AM It is not strictly speaking Acid that causes this, but the Microsoft .NET Framework that Acid needs for some of its functionality. The solution is to install Service Pack 1 for the .NET Framework. You can see Microsoft's explanation of the situation here. Alternatively you could use TweakUI for WinXP to set things up to auto-logon as your user account. Mark
