Well if you go into Control Panel then User Accounts and then into change the way a user logs on or off and you put a check by use a welcome screen it will ask you for a password. Also if you have 2 or 3 user accounts it will ask you which one you want to log in as when you get to the welcome screen. You shouldn't have to use regedit....I don't think.

If you go into change account you can change the name. Problem with doing that is it changes the name at the welcome screen but your personal documents folder will retain its original name as far as I remember.
