369793 2005-07-06 00:43:00 I recently brought a new computer and passed the old XP version one onto my children. I.T. son (12 years old) decided he would place his sister and himself as administrators. When I brought a new printer for this old computer it would not load the driver. The control panel would not even let me open the add/remove programs no matter what administrator I tried to use. I.T. son and I tried to remove all adminstrators and find that we are unable to. :confused: Can anyone please help us with this problem? This computor in the future will have no administors. ;) qwerty (8480)

The computer of the future (if it's to have a future) should have one administrator. Its users should not know the password for the Administrator account. ;)

I don't think you can install Windows XP without having an Administrator accouint.
