Windows XP asking for Password on new install.

Front242 · 05-Nov-2009, 06:36 PM #1

XP Pro SP1, Upgrade from XP home. Drive reformatted. No passwords set but asking for passwords for all users including administrator in Safe Mode. If I try to leave password out it gives me a domain warning. I am reinstalling but I wonder if anyone knows what causes this.

Sounds like you have your network set for a domain instead
of a workgoup.
Right click "my computer" and click properties.
Click the computer name tab.
Click the change button to change it.
All computers on your network should have the same
workgroup name.
