>Description:
I used the simplest installation and during the insatallation it asked for a user name and password, I gave it one, during the boot up process after the installation was completed, it asked for the logon information, I type the name and password I assigned and it said it wasn't valid, I checked to be sure it wasn't a matter of upper or lower case in spelling, I even reinstalled the whole thing and tried again, paying careful attention to detail and it still wouldn't accept my logon information. Why can't I just boot into the operating system without a name and password? Please point me to the solution.
