[SOLVED] Microsoft office administrator problem

kimfreeman7 · 11-01-2007, 06:46 PM

I've just got a copy of MS office 2007 which i'm trying to run on vista. When I try to start instalation is says "you must be an administrator to run this program". I only have one account set up on this computer and it's definatly set to administrator. Whats going on?

Is your RS101 rerouted to any serial SRQ's? If it is you'll have to de-spas the central RF connector and send it to the external core unit.

Turn of UAC read here

or

Right-click on the program's shortcut and select 'Run as Administrator'.
Even though your account is an Adminstrator account, it runs as a Standard user unless and until it needs Admin rights for a particular action. Some programs require Admin rights but are badly coded and don't ask for elevated rights in an appropriate.

I would turn off UAC
