Remove "NT Authority\Authenticated Users" from the local users group on the
computer and replace it with the user you want to have access (and the
domain administrators group for good measure).

Alternatively, look in the Local Security Policy under Security Settings |
Local Policies | User Rights Assignment | Log on locally and amend as
appropriate.

Make sure you still have an accouunt or group the log in and administer the
machine.

Oli
