Sort of an odd problem from my experience...

Ok so i recently bought a new computer, its running Vista (64 bit) Home Premium, and when i first got it i attempted to do an "Easy Transfer" from my old laptop to this new desktop (the laptop was running Vista Home Premium ((32 bit i believe)), not sure if this may have anything to do with the problem)... but anyway, after the Easy Transfer was done, after shutting off my pc and restarting it, upon the windows startup screen the message "incorrect password" pops up first thing before i even try to type in any password o.O ... my pc is secured with a password and if i click ok and then type in the password it works fine, but at start up now every single time the first thing i see is "incorrect password" regardless of the fact that i havnt tried typing in the password yet, and like i said, if i just click ok and type in the password it works fine, so this problem hasnt really been bothering me that much, but i do find it quite odd and was wondering if anyone knew what this could be caused from (its the least of my problems with Vista 64 bit so far btw -_-) .... but yea, ive never seen a vista system show the "incorrect password" message before you even attempt to type the password in at startup haha...

for some reason it is trying to auto log you into the system.

Have you tried going to USERS and disable your login password and then rebooting to see if that clears the issue? if it does, once you're back at the desktop, go back to Users and make up a new password

you could always try this also.

ok guys, so basically nothing i have tried as far as this problem goes accomplishes anything.

even if i remove the password completely and create a new password i get the same message on startup, have to click ok and type the password in, but like i mentioned before, this is just one of the problems im having on my new pc; and im wondering if anyone knows of a simple, well explained, and COMPLETE guide which will tell me the best way to just reinstall vista or go back to factory default settings, and yes i do have the disc that comes with the pc (i tried to use it and it told me i have a newer version of vista installed already), any help, much appreciated.

honestly i think the majority of my problems came about durring that "easy transfer"... wish i had thought better of that choice, to good to be true...
