On the initial log in screen, my user name indicates I have a number of email unread messages in my accounts. 1) How do I turn off this feature 2) I cannot find these unread emails. Thanks in advance. Mike

Hi Mike

You can download TweakUI from
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp and when
installed go to Programs>Powertoys for Windows XP>Tweak UI - then go to
Logon>Unread Mail - disable it in the right hand pane.

Thanks Will, the rest of the story is that when I load Windows XP SP1, I lose my internet connection. I sent a message to the newsgroup for that problem as well. Once I overcome that, either with a patch or a hardware fix, I will try to download the power tools. At this time I get an error that states "GetDllDirectoryW could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll". The instructions state I m ust have SP1 installed to use that feature. Do you have a fix for my internet connection problems so that I can take advantage of power tweaks? Once again, thanks for your help
Mike

Hi,

This is a work around and not a fix.

Go to start, run, type in gpedit.msc
once in go to computer configuration, administrative templates,system, logon, in there enable "Always use classic logon" you'll have the windows 2000 style logon.

thanks
