I don't seem to have full administrative rights, although the user account says it is an adnistrator account. I am able to install software, but when I installed photoshop elements it didn't work. I ran msconfig to change the startup to see if that would help, but when I hit apply it came back with a message that I might need to sign on as an administrator to change options. I also tried to create another user acount with admin rights and it would not bring up the account. It would create an account with guest rights. How can I find out if I have full rights and if not, what do I do?1 person needs an answerI do too

Hi sjm99,I am suspecting that there are modified group policies in your computer. This is what I would recommend you to do.1. Boot your computer in Safe Mode with Networking by restarting your computer and pressing F8 until the Advanced Boot Options appear.2. Select Safe Mode with Networking.3. Open Internet Explorer and run a Full Service Scan of our OneCare Safety Scanner located athttp://safety.live.com.4. Take note of the items that it detected but CANNOT remove. Get back to me with the names of those items, if any.4. Restart the computer in the Normal Mode (the normal way you restart the computer).5. See if that problem still happens. If it still happens, reply back to me.I hope this helps.
