Boris Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 If you are installing this from a limited user account then you may need administrative permissions to instal it.What is the program ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashoverride Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 If that don't work try copying all the data and creating a new account with new permissions... That way you start the slate clean... A least we hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
