Hi:

I have a new windows XP system, and am attempting to load some of my W98 application.
These are commercial applications, on CD, and typically use a Setup file.On some of them,
when I insert the CD the "auto open" does not work. When I "open" the cd and click on
Setup, it wont do a thing. This happens in accounts that have the software install
capability activated.

Can someone tell me the problem, and how to overcome it.

On a different, but related, issue, can someone tell me how to open the Administrative
account? Is this the first account i got on the system? If it is I know where it is and
how its named. If it isn't, how do I find it and open it?


Thanks in advance
