account log off after sceensaver

I need some help.  I'm using Xp, and I've just re-loaded it(actually had to
repair it using the disc)

Before I repaired XP on my machine any time the screen saver come on, and
then exited, it use to bring me back to the login in screen(different
accounts on my system).  Now its not doing that.  I like this option as my
account is different form the guest account and other accounts....I have
mine password protected.  This works great if I leave my computer for a
short period of time(what ever I set the screen saver to...in my case 4
mins), and the screen saver automatically logs me off .  Then when I exit
the screen saver I would have to log back in with own password.

Now I'm not talking the "On resume, Password Protect" in the Display
properties.  The option I'm talking about actually use to log me right off.
How do I get this back?

I've even tried creating more accounts in the control panel since I repaired
XP, still not Working.

Display, r-click properties, screensaver, 'on resume display welcome
screen'? (tick the box) .. is that what you meant, or is that the one
you don't want?
