Hello, I have a Dell XPS M1210 which i purchased today, however, whenever i attempt to install a program, such as Internet Explorer 7 or any other programs, the computer says that I do not have the rights to install the program. The computer's opperating system is Windows XP Professional. Many thanks, Lambros

Switch users and login ot Windows as the Administrator. Then go to Control Panel >> User Accounts. Inside User Accounts, choose your user name and simply change the rights accordingly.

You may need to register your computer first.
Look for the product code either on your computer or in the manual that came with it.
Then go into control panel and open the security centre folder.
Click on automatic updates.....this should take you to the site to register windows.......remember you will need that product code.
Good luck
