Logging on Windows NT
July 27, 2001 Profile XP System Guide 35
Logging on Windows NT
When the Profile system powered-on and before Windows NT boots, you must make
a choice of how you want to logon the system.
Automatic Logon
When the Profile XP system is powered on, you may let Windows NT go through an
automatic logon sequence. The system will perform automatic logon using a default
account called profile. After automatic logon, the Windows NT desktop will appear.
Automatic logon will occur at power On when:
- The profile account was used the last time the Profile XP Media Platform was
turned off.
- The Profile XP Media Platform is initially powered On from the factory. (The
factory sets the last user to profile prior to shipment.)
Logging on as Administrator
When the Profile XP system is powered On, you may interrupt automatic logon and
logon as Administrator. It is not necessary to logon as administrator to configure
Profile System software. However, you must logon as Administrator for Windows NT
administration and to:
- Configure Ethernet network settings (see Chapter 9, Setting up a Simple
Network).
- Install new software applications or upgrades (see Profile XP Release Notes).
To log on as Administrator at Power Up
To logon as Administrator at power-up:
1. Power-on the Profile XP system, then hold the Shift key down during start-up to
prevent auto-logon as profile. Be sure to continue holding the shift key until the
logon dialog box appears.
2. Logon as administrator. The default administrator password on a Profile system is
triton.
The next time the Profile XP system is restarted, Windows NT will display a logon
error message. When this occurs, use the logon dialog box to logon manually as
administrator or as profile (see the following procedure).
