Vista Control Panel Problem

Re: Vista Control Panel Problem
Have you Activated it? Sometimes if you're running Unactivated you will experience similar problems.

Re: Vista Control Panel Problem
Luckily i had setup two user accounts, but you can connect to the true admin account and see if you still have the problem.

In the Start menu, right click on "Computer", select "Manage", then "Users and Groups" and finally "Users".
