Creating User accounts in Windows XP
Setting up user accounts is easy, but you must remember to set up your own computer administrator account first. If you do not, you won't be able to set up the others. The names of the user accounts you set up appear listed on the Welcome screen (Welcome Screen is the first screen that appears when you log onto Windows XP. The Welcome page lists the holders of all accounts) and individually on each account holder's Start menu (Start Menu is a menu containing important and frequently used programs, folders and utilities. to open the Start Menu, click the Start button on the Taskbar ).
Note: This description and procedure applies only to users of Windows XP Home Edition and to users of Windows XP Professional configured to link the computer to a workgroup NOT to a Domain.
To determine whether your computer is linked to a workgroup:
click Start, and then Right Click My Computer.
Click Properties from drop down menu that appears.
