Do you mean automatic entry of the username and password, or do you mean
by-passing the username and password dialogue entirely?
You can get rid of the username and password dialogue by following the
procedure here.

You can create an automatic entry of username and password by setting these
registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
AutoAdminLogon 1 (string)
DefaultPassword <password> (string)
DefaultUserName <username> (string)
This is the way that Tweakui does it.

Do you:
1. Have a username and password for networking compatibility with later
versions of Windows, and not want to have to input them in order to log on
to the machine?
OR
2. You simply don't want to have to input username and/or password to log on
to your non-networked machine?
If it's 1., you can try going to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Network\Real
Mode Net
Add a Value named "Autologon", d-click it and make it "1" (one). Note,
however, that this may cause several problems:

If your issue is 2., above, then see here:
