how to access as administrator

[niteowl]

hi all,

A friend just bought a new laptop from Toshiba, it came with WindowsXP
Home pre-installed, on boot up I was asked for names of who would be
accessing this computer, I enter the three names, it never offered me to
make one an administrator, I didn't thing about it at the time..
I went throught the activation process and all is working.

I then went into one of the profiles and installed OfficeXP, full
install, and it seemed that all three profiles had Word and Excel,
Access, etc. but only the one I was in when I installed had Powerpoint
available to it.. ?? Why would only that program be restricted to this
one profile?

I could also not find how to access the system as the administrator as I
assume that's how I should have installed it in the first place.

How do I fix this now..

thanks,
niteowl

For ADM.,restart computer,tap the F8 key,select start in ADM. mode wit
