Not being recognised as administrator


Recommended Posts

Hey, I have full windows admin account and I am trying to install giveio so I can access my parallal ports to program my avr microcontroller and its saying I dont have the admin rights to install it (I think).

I am not very good at all this stuff as I am just learning.

I am running XP home 32 bit

Help would be greatly apreciated

C:\WinAVR-20090313\bin>install_giveio
Copying the driver to the windows directory
target file: C:\WINDOWS\giveio.sys
1 file(s) copied.
Remove a running service if needed...
Installing Windows NT/2k/XP driver: giveio
installing giveio from C:\WINDOWS\giveio.sys... install failed (status 5):
Access is denied.

starting giveio... start failed (status 1060):
The specified service does not exist as an installed service.

ERROR: Installation of giveio failed
