System administrator
 

All of a sudden iam not the administrator of my own computer? it says i need to log on? number one how? all i wanted to do was to shut off some programs from coming on at start up.

Think i got it, but it still gives me that message but my changes take affect? weird.

I wonder if someone hacked into your computer?

Go into your Control Panel
Click on "User Accounts"
Click on "User Accounts" again...
That will give you a list of "users" on your computer and it tells you if they are administrators or not. If you double click on the user, then click on the tab that says "Group Memebership", you can select "Administrator" by selecton "Other" and
using the drop down menu.

Ok next question where can i find system restore i just need to back it up one day.

Do you have an anti virus program? Lots of times you can find it in there.

Otherwise, go into your start menu, click on Programs, click on accessories, click on system tools and you will find "system restore" there.

I have done it before but it was a long time ago ( i just forgot where it was) thanks STG

Ok alls well this BS started with a simple call on a FEAR game tech support issue, i got some dude from india i could barely understand.

Did you get it fixed, Bronx?

I love windows. You can install a virius w/o admin rights, but you need admin rights to remove it...........

Smart a**

It's true. I deal with this crap all day.
