Just bought new Turbo Tax 2003 and program will not install because I am
not logged on as Administrator. How do I do this? XP Home.

Thanks,

I don't know if this works in XP Home, but try pressing
COntrol+Alt+Delete when you are asked to log on. This
should take you to a screen where you can type in a name
(type Administrator) instead of choosing from a list.
 
reboot, press F8 during the boot process and a list of options will appear, click on safe mode without command prompt
This will take you to safe mode, a list of logon names will appear with the administrator at the top of list, just enter
good luck

Sorry 4got to suggest the obvious, incase you haven't tried it. Go to user accounts in control panel and check that your account is listed as an administrators account, if not, you can change this either from the admin in safe mode. Or open a new account then logon in the new account and change the settings for your oringinal 1 to administrative.
Hope this helps!!
