| | Issues with activating the administrator account? I activated my administrator account on my home premium for some strange (I don't even recall) reason. I used the local security policy. I disabled the account soon after, but since then I'm having all kinds of weird problems like: - The DRM components are not owned by SYSTEM, but an unknown user (leading to all sorts of issues with mediaplayer - not able to play msn music store songs) - I'm unable to install a new display driver from nvidia - just stops at 50% (169.25) - I'm unable to install a new graphics card It got me wondering if activating and later deactivating the administrator account has side effects? I read somewhere about the xxx-500 SID used by that account. It may be that these are totally unrelated of course, but I wanted to ask regardless. Thanks! |
