logged in as Admin, can't install

[Guest]

I just installed Win2k on this machine and everywhere I turn I'm getting Administrator Only errors. I can't run Windows Updates or install anything I download. I have access to all other Admin functions though. Any thoughts?

These needed to be applied before connecting your new install to any
network. Also spyware has probably edited the local group policy.

Stupid question: is your user name in the Administrators group on the local machine?
