The CSE Networked Windows PC Environment - Getting Started in CSE 203

Logging In the First Time

This document explains how to access the CSE networked Windows PC environment from one of the CSE lab sites.  For this first login, you may be working with a partner during a "closed" lab session.  ("Closed" just means it's an organized, in-class session, as opposed to a lab exercise that you work on at times of your own, or of your partnership's, choosing.)  If so, take turns: have one partner log in and copy her or his files, then have the other partner do the same thing.

Login to Windows on the PC, as follows:

Logging Out

If you're taking turns, now is the time for the first partner to log out, so that the second partner may log in and copy her or his files.  The second partner may remain logged in for the remainder of this closed lab exercise.  Click on the "Start" button in the lower-left corner of the screen and select "Log Off".  You will be prompted to confirm that you want to logoff.  Click on "Log Off" if you are sure.  At this point, we want to remind you that it's your responsibility to protect your account and the files it contains by remembering to log out.
