Hi, I just purchased a new Windows 8 computer, got it Friday afternoon 8/9/13. I have finally gotten past several other issues.
After finally fixing a plethora of "other" issues, I keep running into a problem where I am being told when trying to install some programs that I need to have Administration User rights to do so. The problem is that it is an Administrator User Account. The User Account is the first and only Account on the computer.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
NOT PART OF THE USER ACCOUNT ISSUE:
["Other" already encountered and finally conquered issues:
#1 Black screens of death with functional mouse cursor upon start up:
This happened every time I turned it on. I had to reset it or hard power the computer off then restart until it would randomly decide to get passed the stupid blue Windows 8 icon and do what it was supposed to do rather then the random but often Black Screen of death.
<-This issue didn't repair itself until after the Windows FATAL ERROR crash->
It continued to do this until after an it decided to amazingly and finally have a successful Windows update. Then it just stopped doing the stupid Black Screen of death with functional mouse, thank goodness!
#2 The very first time I attempted to update Windows 8 it failed and then crashed when trying to install the updates upon restart. FATAL ERROR 0xc00003a.
(I remind you this was a Windows update that caused this.)
I could not get Windows 8 to reboot until I went into recovery mode and accepted the option to wipe all 3rd party apps (already 48 GB's of installed programs) and basically re-install Windows 8.]
Is Windows 8 64-bit just pure crap or am I just extremely unlucky?
