Title: I have heard in windows xp (HE)
Post by magicdust on Sep 3^rd, 2004 at 1:43pm

That it is very difficult to grant admin rights in the normal desktop phase and people have reccomended you go into safe mode. However, I need access to it here because it deals with peripheral software (My printer driver got corrupted somehow).

Does anybody know how to make my account the admin in the non-safe mode version of win xp home edition sp1?

"to grant admin rights"

Why don't you just log in as 'Administrator'? or as a user with Administrator rights?

Is this not your computer? Why wouldn't you have admin rights?
