I have a machine Vista Home Premimun in a workgroup - an independant machine
attached to no network. When this machine was configured the main user
wasn't give administrator permissions to him machine. He's a standard user.
Is there a way to change his account to an administrator???
 
Yes I know you can do that however the issue is the user is a standard user
and the change will not stay. If you log in as administrator and go to the
control panel to manage other user accouts to do the same thing, nothing
shows up.
 
try to do it the old way
with an admin account:

right click on my computer -> manage
go to local users and groups -> groups
double click the administrators group
click add
type in a name to add and click ok

in some setups (a domain) the user might need to logoff and logon back again
for the changes to take effect but I believe that in your case they don't
