administrator's privileges
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2003 18:19:22 -0800
Can anyone tell me how to install a program which gives me
an error message, "Access denied. Please logon with
administrator privileges and try again" I have Windows XP
running and have a user account which is a computer
administrator account. There is also another user on the
computer with the same type of account. I have tried to
install the program which is a game while in safe mode
under the default administrator account with the same
results.
