Default User Problem


I sent my laptop to HP for repair, and it came back with
hp as the registered owner. I've already changed the
registered name from hp to my name, but hp is the only
User under Task Manager. If I add another user, then I
can't access my documents. This is really annoying, can
anyone help?

Thank you.
AL

Your documents are accessible under
c:\documents and settings\hp\. . .
You may have to modify the permissions of that folder
so that everyone can see the documents.
