I have the same problem too. A few months ago i bought my laptop (hp dv6735)
and have my user account set up initially to administrator account only. A
few days ago i created a new account and assigned it as the administrator,
and my old account i switched as the standard user account.
Now, i cannot access my adminstrator account anymore and it prompts "logon
failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this
computer". I am really sure that my password is correct, but i am wondering
(like crazy) why i cannot access my administrator account? there are required
software updates that i cannot install anymore as it needs adminitrator
permission...please help us
