Force as close to the the "classic" logon as Vista can get: Start -> Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> Administrative Tools -> Local Security Policy ->Local Policy -> Security Options ->"Interactive logon: Do not display last user name" = Enabled, "Interactive logon: Do not require CTRL+ALT+DEL" = Disabled Start -> gpedit.msc -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Logon -> Hide entry points for Fast User Switching = Enabled, always use classic logon = enabled Not sure if it is all needed or not, but it worked for me. Good luck! -- Zaphod Arthur: All my life I've had this strange feeling that there's something big and sinister going on in the world. Slartibartfast: No, that's perfectly normal paranoia. Everyone in the universe gets that. |

| | Re: vista logon screen - switch user I think the "Hide entry points for Fast User Switching = Enabled" can only be set on machines which are not part of a domain. ie: not available in domain environment. |
