Vista - HELP!!!!

04-08-2008

I was having trouble installing itunes as it kept asking for admin rights, so
I thought i would set up a new account as an admin and change my normal
account as standard but when i tryed to loggon as admin it said it could not
access that account and now i'm stuck with an admin account that i can't
access and a standard account that i can't do anything with what the hell do
i do.

Try booting in safe mode. then go into the control panel and change the
access level for your login.

Hello, although it is not recommended, you could set all your accounts as administrators if you wanted to. You didn't have to change your original account to standard account. Have you tried " right click, Run As Administrator " method. If that doesn't work, try the tutorial I read : --
