I just installed XP Pro on a system, I'm logged on as the
administrator and I have no Administrative Tools! What's
going on here.

Try going into "appearance" & finding "taskbar & start menu"
Go into start menu.
Then I think it's "custamise"
Then "advanced" tab.
Scroll to bottom item in list & click "show"
OK?

Do you mean in Control Panel or on the Start menu?

While in Control Panel, look on the left side in the column, and under =
Control Panel, click on "Switch to Classic View".

I've already switched to Classic View, I've added the
Administrative Tools to the Start Menu and I can't see
them in either the Start Menu or in the Control Panel. On
the Start Menu it just displays a grayed out (Empty) and
when I go through the Control Panel the folder is empty.
