ADDING ANOTHER USER, SPECIFICALLY ADMINISTRATOR

[Skylar]

HI STRANGERS WITH ANSWERS..I HOPE, (SORRY FOR THE ALL
CAPS, I DIDN'T THINK EVEN THINK ABOUT IT, AND I KNOW IT
COMES OFF STRONG). PLEASE READ ON, AS I NEED ASSISTANCE

I AM A NEWBIE, AT LEAST REGARDING ADDING ANOTHER USER TO
MY XP HOME SYSTEM, AND PROBLEMS I AM HAVING. I HAVE
RESEARCHED TO THE POINT I HAVE A HEADACHE WITH NO LUCK.
SO I AM TRYING THIS OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME.

HERE IS THE DEAL: RECENTLY I ADDED ANOTHER USER TO MY
COMPUTER WHICH IS ALSO AN ADMIN ACCOUNT BECAUSE A FAST
SWITCH BETWEEN THEM, AND ALSO BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT IF I
LIMIT THE ACCOUNT I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO A LARGE CHUCK OF
MY SOFTWARE. I HAVE A GOOD 10GB FREE ON MY PRIMARY DRIVE
AND TONIGHT I AM DOWNLOADING SOMETHING ON THE 2ND USER
ACCOUNT AT I GET A WARNING THAT I AM LOW ON DISC SPACE. I
AM COMPLETELY CONFUSED. IS THERE A SPECIAL PLACE THAT
USER ARE KEPT THAT LIMIT THERE ALLOCATION OF DISK SPACE;
EVEN IF THE CASE, I DON'T THINK ANOTHER ADMIN WOULD BE
RESTRICTED, SO I AM BEFUDDLED? IT HAS BEEN ONE THING
AFTER ANOTHER.

IF SOMEONE HAS FEEDBACK ON THIS USER THING, I WOULD LOVE
TO HEAR IT, BECAUSE THE MICROSOFT SITE WAS SO BASIC THAT
MY LITTLE BROTHER COULD HAVE TOLD ME MORE.

SOMETHING ELSE HAS BEEN MOST TROUBLESOME, EVER SINCE I
ADDED THE ACCOUNT, IT IS POSITIONED ABOVE MY PRIMARY
ACCOUNT, WHICH BECAME VERY PROBLEMATIC WHEN I HAD TO GO
INTO SAFE MODE A FEW DAYS AGO AND COULDN'T ACCESS MY
MASTER ACCOUNT, AS ONLY TWO ACCOUNT AS LISTED (ADMIN AND
THE MASTER). I EVEN TRIED TO CHANGE TO LIMITED STATUS,
BUT IT DIDN'T ADJUST THE POSITION. I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING
ON THIS EITHER ON THE MS SITE. IF SOMEONE HAS THE ALL THE
ANSWERS, LIKE Q, PLEASE RESCUE ME. THAT'S IT, I OFF TO
TAKE TO ADVIL. THANKS FOR READING THIS LONG EMAIL.

BEST,
SKYLAR

Please unstick your CapsLock key and repost your question.
Posting in all caps, as you have done, is the Usenet equivalent of
shouting, and is considered very rude by many people. More
importantly, posting in all caps makes the post very hard to read,
reducing your chances of getting help.
