Your system administrator has disabled launching of the display settings control panel.

I get the following message when I try to change the screen saver in the control panel:

"Your system administrator has disabled launching of the display settings control panel."

I am the administrator. My computer was before my husband, but he doesn't remember to disable anything until he gave it to me. What can I do to restore it?

Please help, I deeply appreciate.

Ah, sorry. Try this instead.

Its a link to specific steps to solve this kind of problem.
I hope this helps!

    3. press a button if you are prompted to start from the DVD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
    5. Select repair when prompted.
    6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
