If the attacker has physical access to your computer, it's not your computer any more. With physical access, the login accounts can be altered with a boot disk. In a laptop, you can password lock the hard drive, which is impossible to bypass without swapping the logic board, but most desktops can't do this. There are some hard drive controlers that encrypt with a keyfob, but you'd have to buy that.
