In a blank text document write:

Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"DefaultDomainName"="SYSTEM"
"DefaultUserName"="Administrator"
"AutoAdminLogon"="1"

save it as something.reg, (remember, thefile uses a reg extension, if you can't see the extensions, enable it in folder options)

Changes take effect after reboot.
I use this script during windows install so that no other user profile is created.
If you only want to use the Administrator Profile, delete the other profiles using User Accounts or manually in Documents and settings.

Hope this is what u need

This tweak will allow automatic administrator login in windows. It'll not show administrator account or any other account at login screen. ;)
And also u'll hv to create another String value DefaultPassword and set its value to ur admin password. :)

But as he asked to enable Administrator account in Login screen, just open regedit and goto:

Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList

and in right-side pane, create a DWORD value Administrator and set its value to 1

^^ But note that above registry entry works well in WinXP Professional edition, but not in Home edition. In Home Edition, administrator account comes up during switch user operation, but not at the start...
