I haven't tried this myself, but supposedly, there is a way, as outlined by
One Tip A Day:
- Click on the Start button and type in ‘netplwiz‘. This will open the Advanced User Accounts menu
- In the Users tab, highlight the account you want to login to Vista automatically with, and then ‘must enter a username and password to use this computer’
- Click on ‘Apply’. A new window will now popup asking you to enter the password of the account you’ve just highlighted. Do this, and then click ‘Ok’
- Click ‘Ok’ on the Advanced User Accounts menu to finish
From now on, you should automatically login to the chosen account.
