I think you should set password for you account
Control panel --> Account management --> set password

then at the welcome screen you should enter password

for setting password on administrator:
shift+right click on account management --> run as administrator.
thats all

well i cant sign on in anyway at all atm and i was wondering if there was a alternate option rather then just doing anouther system restore and hoping it doesnt happen again
