Windows XP login problem

4
My Windows XP machine used to start up and have
username, password, and domain
input entries in order to log in.

In trying to change the network settings so that the machine connects to my home network (which has it own workgroup), I made some changes, and it requested that I restart.

Upon restarting, it only shows input entries for
usernam and password
only.

No place to add the domain.

And it does not recognize my password and does not log me in.

I tried entering <domain>\<username> in the entry box for username, but that doesn't work either. (where <domain> and <username> are the ones specific to my account)

Any ideas?

your computer is no longer on a domain, you changed the settings to workgroup which is P2P.

your username and password are those of the domain and not of the local machine, so the computer has no clue who you are.

to put yourself back on the domain or to create a user account for the local machine login as the admin:
username: Administrator
password:
(password is usually empty, unless you set it to something)
