Can't logon to the computer

My nephew has a computer running WinXP.
He has a few acccounts setup.
But he can't sign into any of them. It accepts the password but then freezes and goes no further. It's the same for the other accounts.
How can I bypass the logon screen?
and how do I solve the problem?
Thanks

You CAN temporarily disable the Welcome screen by clicking on CTRL + ALT + DEL twice when the Welcome screen appears.
You will then receive the original logon screen found in W2K and in XP Pro that is a part of a domain.
You can then press ESC to come back to the Welcome screen if you want.
BTW, for this to work there shouldn't be any users logged on.
I have nothing better to do!!!!

Another option is to restore windows to an earlier point, I think that will only work if you have not changed any of the passwords.MSE:-)MoneySpendingExpert (-:0
