My computer won't allow me to do some things as it says I am not an administrator, when I am! It is my computer and I have checked my user account details and it says I am the administrator but I am still told I do not have the correct privileges to change most setting! I do not understand why this is! I have tried system restor and all sorts of other things and it won't let me do anything!
Please can someone help me?:confused:

Before you try anything else, first boot your computer in SAFE MODE and see if your privileges to change the things you are trying to change return.

While in SAFE MODE, create another account and give it ADMIN authority. Try using that new account to do what you want.

Any luck?

Thanks for replying but when I go in safe mode and try and do anything it just tells me there is a link missing for the application and it cannot be run. This all happened after I installed windows xp sp2!
