I was having problems getting some software to install , the install process
would start, in the middle it would stop, no error or anything, when I went
to shut down the computer right before it shut down, there was the part that
would guide you through the rest of the install but the computer shut down.
I saw a post where it said to right click and RUN AS, then choose
Administrator, I tried this and nothing happened, so I tried it again this
time and choose Current User, there was check box that said Protect my
computer from unathorized program activity, I un-checked this box and clicked
OK then tried to install the software and it worked.
Hope this can help somebody

If it doesnt install auto,go to my computer,locate the cdrom with the cd
installed,R.click,select auto run..Forget the "run as"
