I have to become the administrator, BUT I install as someone else with Admin rights
Y at - he an Admin account 'secret' that I don't see that I can become/use?
No, I'm not being funny. If I use my admin account, I will be always challenged to confirm some tasks such as facilities. The dialog box that appears does not have a password that I'm already in the account, but it makes me just confirm with an OK button. I could reduce the frequency of these confirmations by reducing the intensity of the UAC in order the user account settings control panel, user accounts, change, but it doesn't bother me if I leave UAC to the maximum power. Of Oberwald explanation & WARNING [below] are correct - leaving UAC high helps inhibit malware.
What what happens or something else?
I don't know where you can get more details using Windows [accounts] otherwise than by searching this forum for the admin facilities, UAC, but there would be so many results you'd be overwhelmed. You can try www.sevenforums.com

Is there a way for me to reset the password on my laptop (I am the administrator, but I've changed my password and you forgot what I changed to)?
When I click on "reset password" it says to insert the removable disk or flash drive. I put in a disk, and nothing happened. I inserted a flash drive and the computer said that it could not do (or something).
Hello

Try to connect to my computer as the administrator, but after I put my login in it goes to check on the page and will not let me connect. The regular connection for the computer works fine. Any ideas?
Try a system restore to a Date before the problem began:
Restore point:
http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/
Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.
http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm
Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

"Can not open AsIO.sys (2)" I get this message when I log in after a reboot. I have search for the file, but can't find it with the research or the command prompt. What do do in this file, and can be created and put into the appropriate folder?
Hi Jack,
This driver belongs to AsIO.sys Asus Probe. Try to uninstall Asus Probe and if you need, install again. If this does not help, uninstall Asus Probe and other tools of control such as Speedfan. Open the registry (regedit.exe) editor and search for AsIO.sys and remove all the entries that you can find.

CAPTCHA does not. have tried all the solutions support and installed the new FF. still does not. Help.
Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether your profile is the source of the problems.
See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

Original title: 32-bit
my information of the computer says it has a 64-bit, but when I try to download a program, it tells me that I have to uninstall the 32-bit and install a 64-bit. Why is this and how to do this. I don't have a disk for this computer since I bought it used. It's a core of windows 7 I5.
Thank you
Hello

You can run the as most 32-bit programs on Windows 64-bit, however you can not run a
64-bit on 32-bit Windows programs.
If you have 64-bit Windows which programs you are trying to install.
I hope this helps.
