Our I.T. department which does not support Vista yet has set up my Vista
notebook with one of the I.T. folks having an administrative account and then
identified my personal account as being an administrator. Even with that
administrator identity I still cannot install software such as FireFox and
BOINC which need to access the C:\Windows directory. Part of the install
involves a folder named Downloaded Installations in C:\Windows. Even as an
administrator I cannot create that folder myself nor create one elsewhere and
move it into C:\Windows.
Therefore my question would be how to get Vista to recognize my user account
as an administrator. What's missing?
Thanks
