Access Denied
so... i have gone through every step listed in every forum and troubleshooting page... to no avail.. this one may be a tough one. i installed a new copy of windows 7 on a custom build... now i have no access to anything. i am listed as the "administrator". i try to edit my account type, access denied. cmd prompt run as administrator.. access denied, inserting the install disk, access denied... seems like everything is locked. i am the only user, i cannot create any accounts, install anything, edit anything, i own a $1,500 paper weight... ive tried safe mode, components: motherboard - MSI NF750-G55 8GB ddr3 1600 ram 160gb IDE HDD Western Digital NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX285 AM3 QUAD CORE 3.4GHz processor MSI dvd rom drive this has gotten me beyond frustrated, any ideas would be much appreciated, please keep in mind i cant do the simple changing permission steps or entering admin account... otherwise i wouldnt even bother posting, Thank you Bryan
