Plz Help/user Accounts

Post by mandm6 »

I was trying to change my account from adm. to limited. I had a brain F---. When i created the adm. account, I just typed in a bunch of keys thinking when i restarted the computer it would show 2 accounts. The adm. account where i just typed in different keys and the limited account.Neither account had a password. Well i screwed up again because it only shows the limited account and now lots of my programs will not work. Please tell me what i can do to change the limited account back to my adm. account. There is no option anywhere for the adm. account where i just typed in a lot of keys without looking...
Thanks, Kevin

It will not let me install it. It says i must be a member of the administrators group to install it? It figures, Nothing is easy for me...

I got it YoS. Thanks a lot. I just had to click "run as" and it let me go a step farther and there was a drop down box and there were the keys i punched in like you said! YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!
