I have my laptops set to auto-login. No problem at all. The only time
that I use the password is when I log-off and log back on without
shutting down. I happen to be using Win XP right now. I have FC3 on a
different partition on this computer. But there is a menu item for this,
but I would have to go back and re-do it to remember what it was, but it
is a simple check box, plus you designate which account is the auto
login account.
If you need a simple password that he could remember, try his name plus
his age combined, "roger09"
