Help!!! I have a problem that i cant figure out.  when i configured a pc from the begining i named the pc "dmeyers" by mistake, so when i was asked to add users later on in the proccess, i tried to add "dmeyers:" as a user and windows prevented me from doing so because the pc was called "dmeyers" soo.... i just added a user named "dmeyers2" so then... when i finished installation i just simply renamed the :"dmeyers2" user name to "dmeyers"... simple.... but now... everytime i restart the pc the default log on user name is "dmeyers2" and no matter what i do i cant get the default to be "dmeyers"  can anyone give me a suggestion to change the name that it shows at start up?  I allready logged on correctly but the "dmeyers2" keeps showing up.Start Free Trial
