I wanted a Windows XP client which was not a member of the domain to have the same look and feel as the rest of the domain member clients. Part of creating this effect was to enable the Ctrl-Alt-Del to login prompt at startup.
In order to enable the Ctrl-Alt-Del prompt at startup in Windows XP you need to set or create the DWORD registry entry “DisableCAD” to 0.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon] "DisableCAD"=dword:00000001 |
See more information at Microsoft Technet.
You can download this registry file to set this for you.
