Computer--HP Pavillion XT933
I changed the boot to CD--shut down with disc in--will not start with your screen. Rick |

Hello,
What type of blank media did you use? DVD-R, CD-RW, etc? What files show up on the disc you created? Thanks, Dana |

The disc doesn't boot into any specific username, it's simply boots to the screen shown in the instructions that has the list of local usernames on the computer. If there's an Administrator user, which there typically is, it will be one of the names in the list however.
