Xp Help

[Livy]

i have only on user on my computer, and got it set to automatically log on.
i have the windows classic theme on my user.
but as i start up, the win xp theme loads up first. then it comes up the classic theme when it starts logging on, i was wondering if anyone knew how to set the log on screen theme to classic theme.
i have turned off the welcome screen.
it also does the same on my other computer.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

it wasnt the welcome screen i wanted to change, i have turned off use the welcome screen. so it looks like win 2k style, but it uses the xp theme for the window, and i just want it to use classic style theme. since this is what my user is set to, and to save boot time.

i'm sorry but i don't think u can do that....i may be wrong but u always start up as an xp styled theme and then it changes to the classic theme......

oh well, i was just trying to get it not to do that to save a bit on boot time, since the xp theme isnt needed, as im using classic theme
