I recently had HD problem that resulted in the tech having to transfer
all my files to a new HD. Somewhere in the interim, whatever settings
I had made to eliminate the log-on screen with password, has been lost
and I can't seem to get rid of it! I've tried using several methods,
but all have been unsuccessful. I'm the only one at this computer, so
I don't need a log-on and PW. Help, please!

TweakUI will do it (long link, watch the word wrap):

Thanks for your reply, but I already have TweakUiXP and under the
Logon>Autologon, checked the "Log on automatically at system startup",
entered my "User name", set my password, but I'm still getting the
same annoying window(s) at startup. Suggestions?

Well you can try to run this from Start->Run:

Control Userpasswords2

TweakUI should of done it though.

There be an underlying problem here! When I open control
userpasswords2 window, under the "Users" button, there are two names:
"Administrator" and "Bill". These must have been set by the tech that
installed the new HD. In my particular case, I am BOTH the
"Administrator" and "Bill". I'm currently using "Bill". I don't seem
to find anyplace where it recognizes that essentially I'm one and the
same! Could this be the source of the problem?
