When I turn on the computer everything runs fine until it hits the log in screen, where it doesn't list any user names to sign in. I tried Crl-Alt-Delete and tried typing in my username but XP says that it is incorrect login information

This can occur if you manage to delete all local user accounts (User Accounts
won't let you do this, but other account- management tools aren't as protective)
or, in some cases, if you upgrade your computer from an earlier version of
Windows
If you're using Windows XP Professional, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete two times to
display the Log On To Windows dialog box.
Type Administrator in the User Name box, and enter the password you created for
the Administrator account during setup (or leave blank if none was created).
Logged on as Administrator, you can run User Accounts and create one or more new
accounts, which will thereafter show up on the Welcome screen.
Windows XP Home Edition users can't log on using the Administrator account,
which is prevented by account restrictions from logging on.
Instead, you must start Windows XP in Safe Mode by pressing F8 at the beginning
of the startup process. After you're up and running in Safe Mode, you can run
User Accounts to create one or more new accounts.

HOW TO: Take Ownership of a File or Folder in Windows XP
NOTE: You must be logged on to the computer using an account that has
administrative privileges. If you are running Windows XP Home Edition, in order
to have access to the Security tab, you must first start in Safe Mode and log on
with an account that has Administrative rights.
