Answer» Hello, I have a problem with accessing my laptop. My Fujitsu laptop is running Windows 7 Enterprise.

The normal user required no password, so I would just select it and HIT "Enter". Since this annoyed me, I disabled the account so that Windows would log on automatically without asking to select a user and the hitting "Enter", part. Now when open my laptop, only the "Insert a smart card" option is available and I can't use my laptop since my other user is disabled. I tried getting into "Safe Mode" but it won't boot in "Safe Mode", it tries to and then just jumps/goes back to normal Windows and takes me to the "Insert smart card" log on screen. I tried cmd prompt in "Repair mode", to activate the user with "net user username /activate:yes", and when I restarted the user still wouldn't show up, just the "Insert a smart card" option was available.
