Ctrl + Shift + Esc brings up the task manager. Ctrl + Alt + Del, depending on your login configuration, can bring up the task manager, welcome screen, or the windows security window.

ben862000, what are you trying to do?

Attached is a security window image from 2003 Server

Ctrl + Shift + Esc brings up task manager on XP PRO and with my config Ctrl + Alt + Del brings up the security window. Also Ctrl + Alt + Del is required prior to login

Not really both 2000 Pro and NT 4 both use Ctrl + Alt + Del in the same fashion as XP Pro, 98/ME are not a previous version of XP.

Is it possible to enable a security screen as shown above on XP Home Edition? If so, how can I go about this?

Thanks

John

You mean, to bring up the security window ? Go into control panel, then user accounts. Klick on "Change the way users logs on or off" and disable the welcome screen.

It goes to the welcome screen automatically when you boot up.

If you turn off this welcome screen though, then ctrl + alt + de; open the security window.

You're going to have to type more clearly. I can't figure out what you are attempting to say.
