Ok, as everyone else, new computer, Vista was already installed on the
computer. I originally setup my account as an administrator. Once I found
out that Vista would not let me run some applications as an administrator I
setup a standard user as well. Somehow, I changed my main account to
standard and the new user is the administrator. Vista will not let me switch
users. I have tried the swith users function but my standard user is the
only one that comes up on the login screen. Why can I not see the other user
I setup? Also, this computer is for home use, can you just deactivate the
whole security thing? Microsoft was to clever for their own good on this one.
