| | admin access? Hi all, Something weird is going on in my Vista Ultimate July CTP install. Very often, when I go to do certain things like change network connection properties, install programs etc. I get an error message saying I dont have enough rights OR I am not logged in as an administrator. However, when I go to my User accounts in Control Panel, it shows me as an Administrator. Whats up? TIA! |
