| | Account locked when I turn my laptop on (wake) from hibernation I now have to click on my icon/account because it says it is locked. After clicking on the icon/account it goes to the desktop. The "does not need password" has been checked under the password option so that is not the issue. I did not have to do this until a Vista upgrade was installed now I have to do it all the time. How can this be changed. No password is required, the screen just states it is locked. I am the only person on the computer and am listed as the administrator. |

Check the NOTE at the top of the tutorial also for the screen save password on resume option as well.
