Go to start => run and type control userpasswords2. If the "users must enter an user name and password" box is unticked retick it
P.S : From next time around, post in the correct section.

What?
OP logs in after entering his password -> OP commands a restart -> computer restarts, but this time it does not ask for a password and goes straight to OP's account's desktop.
@OP; not related to your problem, but why are you still sticking to XP?

The xp doesn't even ask a password during booting
In that case, does it boots to Admin account?
Just one suggestion. Move from XP to Win 7. 
Highly recommended. There seems to be no reason to stick to XP.Just one suggestion. Move from XP to Win 7.
Moreover Support for Windows XP is ending by April 8, 2014.
Better to switch in Advance.

Even now its support is just hanging by a thread really.
That too will end after an year.

OT : What does end of support really imply? Does it mean that Microsoft won't longer provide any more security updates pr bug fixes through Windows Update? Or does it include something else also?
PS : I have not used XP since 2007! Neither do I encourage anyone using it too.
It will not make any updates for XP afterwards.
