I am running windows XP Home Sp2…
I have had this problem for the past couple days… When my computer is sitting idle and i am not using after a while the windows logon(the screen where you choose which user you want to log in with) just comes up.
I know for sure it is not going into standby because I am using Nero Vision Express to do some encoding. All the processes keep going. I checked the power settings and it is on “always on”. Everything says never even standby.
I have not installed any programs recently so I can’t be that…
Could Microsoft Antispyware program be affecting my computer… thats is the only thing I can think of cuz it recently updated.
The other thing is when I powered up my computer it would just automatically log me into my account, there is no password(i know this is not good but its convenient) so it takes me straight to the desktop without logging in. But now it does not do that, it stops at the user login screen when I only have one user account on the computer.
Any help would be appreciated… thank you
