| I have been working on this computer for days and have tried many solutions. I am on a personal computer with vista and am constantly getting the error "the administrator has set policies to prevent this installation". I had to disable the UAC to download the netflix movie player and to make a couple of other changes. I don't want to go and disable it everytime I have to change something. I installed Trend Micro Internet security pro about a month ago. I don't know if that would have anything to do with it. If anyone can help it will be greatly appreciated! | Guest

| Kevin, I to have been working for days to install an HP or Lexmark printer. Neither printer driver will install. I get administrative rights problems. I was actually up to 19 pages from HP tech support and still nothing worked. Lexmark referred me to windows vista website/tech support. website to check if brand new printer and the other 2 years old printer was compatible. Their website says yes. Microsoft would not help me; stated I had to go back to the manufacturer who installed vista premium (more like a piece of crap if you ask me). Gateway tech support gave up after 45 minutes and referred me to pcexperts website (which costs money). Gateway customer service yelled at me and stated they could not help with 3rd party device but could if I paid $ 130 for 90 minutes of service (sure, I have spent days already, now they want me to pay up to $ 500 dollars) for their problem. They are the ones who installed windows vista and chose windows vista. I just wanted to scan 1 lousy piece of paper, 1 stupid photo of a sunset. So, I would like to help you, but can't. Just wanted to wish you luck on finding a solution. If Gateway won't honor their warranty for a $ 1000 laptap that can't print and microsoft ignores the problem....after 20 years of microsoft operating system, new computer every 2 years....I give up. Going to use APPLE ...their iods work with ease. Their computer/systems can't be half as bad as the mess above. At least they offer 3 years full time any time as much as you want tech support, including printers for $ 250. Good luck "Kevin" wrote: Quote:
