Default Logon Problem in Vista?

The problem I am having on our Vista computer has to do with sleep mode and logon. We deal with 3 accounts, one for me, my sister, and parents. The way we liked it on our XP, is we had the selection "on resume, display logon screen" in the screen saver options when the screen saver comes up. Then, we also have it to go to sleep a few minutes after the screen saver comes on. The problem is, when it comes back on, it goes to the welcome/logon screen, but it has the account of whoever was last on only showing, with "locked" under it instead of all 3 accounts showing. Now, it's not that hard to have to click "switch user" but it's annoying and believe it or not, confusing to my parents. I guess the problem has nothing to do with sleep mode. I have it set to NOT require a password on wake up from sleep mode, if that matters.
In summary, after the screen saver comes up, how can you just get the logon screen to nicely display all 3 accounts, instead of the last person's that was on with "locked" under it, and without having to click "switch user" ?

Thanks. I'll answer questions if there are any
well tay, on my XP, after the screen saver comes on, it goes to the logon screen and shows all accounts, and just a "logged on" under the last person that was on. that's how we want it to be on vista. any suggestions anyone?

Vista and XP will only show all 3 accounts when you are logging on. Cause what you are telling it will only show the current lactive account..

So to simply put it I don't think you can have it show all 3 accounts when its like that only when you log off or sign in it will show all 3
