| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: hhow to: takeover old admins account & all progs & elements Hello Hardway, and welcome to Vista Forums. I would say the best option is to do a clean reinstall of Vista and the other programs to start fresh with full control of it. This way you do not have to worry about what the previous owner may of had on the laptop or not. Hope this helps, Shawn |
