Administrator - System Restore
When I try to access some files and specifically the System Restore, I get ....
"You do not have sufficient security privelages to restore your system. Blah blah blah ..." Obviously I am the System Administrator, so whats wrong? I have no problems installing stuff, and my XP files are all up to date. I asked Microsoft to help once, it resulted in a disc corruption! Anybody got ideas?? Thanks |
