To change driveletters:

Rightclick My Computer > Manage > Storage > Disk Management
Rightclick cd1 and change to next highest driveletter
Rightclick hd4 and change to the now free f:
Rightclick cd1 and change to g:

I guess you want the Admin as logon? Check http://windowsxp.mvps.org/admins.htm and see if that answers your question ;)

Looks like fast user switching and/or using welcome screen is enabled. There <i>should</i> be tabs for the different tasks. I'll post a screenshot of what mine looks like in a minute.

Are you using any kinda theme / window enhancement (window blinds)? If so, try to disable it .... never seen something like that before ;)
