Thanks.
Read a few of those and with a pre-installed Dell copy the easiest way
seemed to be to start out with a Microsoft account then create a local >account.
However my immediate problem is how to change the name on my Microsoft >Account.
I've followed what seemed to be the way using the Microsoft tools but I
can see my details in User Accounts on the PCC, but these details are not >offered at the login screen.
