dna	someone here might be able to answer this. I trying to use chkdsk and I need to enter my admin privileges even though I'm on as an administrator. What do I need to do to get at the other account so that I can log in with the other password. I cannot find the login prompt for that one. It's under windows 7 -=-=- DNA

JL235	I don't understand. If your admin then what is the issue with entering your password? The solution is probably to disable UAC, but I suspect you are not actually admin on your account. I can run chkdsk on my PC without requiring a password.

dna	That's what I thought but it gives the message 'you do not have permissions to access that disk. I can the other ones but not the c: or the d: -=-=- DNA

Spare	I'm not sure what your problem is but did you try this?

dna	Thanks Spare that was it. I thought that it was enabled by default. -=-=- DNA

Stealth	Running everything as root by default would be really bad. -=-=- Quit posting and try Google.

dna	So does the new system 7 block more access to your resources because of this nuance than the other versions of windows? -=-=- DNA
