    Default Administrator Account -- (Why Limited Function)

    Hi,

    I have a single account which I have assigned as a system
    administrator. However, when I invoke those priviliges --
    at least when I am aware of it, -- the system replies
    that you must be logged on as a system administrator. I
    am certain that I am already logged on as a systems
    adminstrator.

    Anyone know what's wrong or what I am not doing. Thanks,
    in advance, for the help.

    Default Re: Administrator Account -- (Why Limited Function)

    Are you sure you are administrator?
    Are you logging on with Administrator or some user name?
    Is this account member of the Administrators group? You can check this
    by running Computer Management, opening Local Users and groups, then
    Groups and double clicking the Administrators. Your account must be
    listed here...
