You may be an "administrators" but in windows,the "administrator" is a
diffrent
account,the s makes a big diffrence sometimes.What sets a pc to require the
administrator instead of letting one of the admistrators account have all
functions
is any ones guess.Either way,dvds/cds drivers are already installed,the
only up-
dates that one might need in xp would be the firmware update for the
device....
