Gman is right that you probably are administrator already, but if you want to verify then: 1) Open Control Panel 2) Open User Accounts 3) Check that your user says Administrator instead of "Limited Account" -----Original Message----- From: pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of ml Sent: Saturday, January 03, 2009 12:03 AM To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Error Message in ArtRage, etc. I would do this myself but I have not a clue where to go to find this administrator privilegs. I thought it might be the safe mode logon because there are two logons, one that gives the computor name administrator and one just plain administrator. But I sure ddin't want to make a mess so I left it alone. Maybe you can tell me where I should be with that and I can give it another go so I get the right place. ml ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gman" <gman.pctt@xxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, January 02, 2009 7:04 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Error Message in ArtRage, etc. > ML, > I was finally able to track down some sort of answer to your issue with > Embird.
