PC Question
I need to install a new driver for a printer and the install process asks me to logon as "Asministrator" then select "Start". How do I log on as Administrator?
I wish I knew more about PC'*

when you first turned on your pc, it should have asked for a user to set up. It sets this user up as admin.
check by right clicking on "my computer", manage, local users and groups, groups, double click administrators, find your profile , it will tell you if it is an admin.
you can also try to log in as administrator if you know the admin password. (try a blank password), meaning no password

Have you figured out how to install your software yet?
