I used "net user administrator /active:yes" to enable the hidden real admin account at a command prompt and got a success message. So I logged off and logged back in as administrator, but the stupid startup and recovery settings STILL says I'm not part of a group that is allowed to make changes. WTF? This is a fresh Vista install from just 2 days ago. ---- Brian On Fri, Aug 15, 2008 at 9:54 AM, FORC5 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Vista Admin's ( log on) do not have full authority > may be able to right click/run as/administrator to get there. not in front > of the vista box at the moment. > > lame > fp > > At 05:02 AM 8/15/2008, Brian Weeden Poked the stick with: >>I'm trying to modify my startup and recovery settings in the advanced part >>of the system config panel and it won't let me.
