If your computer came with Windows 98 installed, you may be prompted for a User ID and Password when you start Win98. This allows separate users to define special desktop configurations. If you are the only user of the system and you don't want to enter a User ID and Password, you can disable the Password Dialog box at Windows startup. 1 - Right-click the Network Neighborhood icon on your desktop and select Properties from the resulting menu. 2 - Click on the Configuration tab and select Windows Login from the Primary Login menu. 3 - Click OK and when prompted to restart your computer, select "NO". 4 - Click Start >Settings >Control Panel and double-click the Passwords icon. 5 - Click the User Profiles tab and select "All users of this computer use the same preferences and desktop. settings." 6- Click the Change Password tab, then the Change Windows Password button. Enter your password into the "Original" password text box but Do NOT enter a new password, click OK to save your settings. Note: If the "Change Password" tab is not there, you must first log into Windows at the login prompt. If you cancel or "X" out of the Login prompt, the "Change Password" tab will not appear. The next time Windows 98 is started, the password prompt will no longer pop up.
