When I first set up XP I was the admin with a pass I
chose during installation. I set up the system as I liked
it then proceded to make an account for my partner.

I wanted to make a limited account for the second one but
XP said that I had to make an administrator account ( I
thought I already had one) so I did it any way.

Back on the desktop I found that all my personal settings
were back to default and all my documents were unavailble.

I later found them in the administrators folder and had
to re-do the file and settings wizard on the "new" admin
account.

WHATS UP??
