Vista Ultimate - how to undo auto-login mistake

I accidentally selected "after passing biometrics, automatically login to
windows" (or something to that effect during installation from DVD. I have
already configured all my software and now would like to know how to make it
ask for login credentials in order to access windows. I see how to choose
that option in the onboard help, but there is nothing as to how to UNdo that
choice. Please?

I don't see how adding another account gets me past the automatic login under
the existing account. I don't want to bugger up the registry with unwanted
or unused user accounts. Please also note that everywhere in Windows where
it asks for if I want to use a password to login it IS CHECKED already (those
that I can find, mind you). Somewhere in the registry however there HAS TO
BE a key to modify the setting that was set in the installation processes.

All you have to do is go to Control Panel> User Accounts> and set a password
for your account to log in!
