I just got a HP5180 all-in-one printer, and the box said it was compatable
with Vista. Windows auto-found/installed the drivers for it, so the printer
works, but I can't install the printer software to use the all-in-one
features. When I try to run the cd, it tells me:
"This software cannot be installed using the "Run as..." command. The
installation cannot continue until this is resolved.

Required Action: Click Cancel to exit this software installation. Log off
and then log on as a user with administration privileges. (Conact your
system administrator for more information.) If there is no system
administrator have the primary user of this computer install the software.
Restart the installation by removing and re-inserting this installation CD."

I did that. I'm on the primary user account, with administrator privileges,
and it still gives me that message every time. Any idea how I can install
this?
 
what kind of trouble are you havein? I am a network admin in the military
and have worked with the 5500 series printers.
 
if u got to the hp site and go to the support section there may be a driver
which supports windows vista
