I finally switched my daughter's old A7A133 for the very nice NF7-S.

I was expecting to have to do a repair install at the very least...which I still might have to do...but at the moment all is "almost" good-to-go.

Except....now all of the programs at Desktop are blocked...access is denied...I don't have appropriate permissions to access items....?

I first went into the Bios and cleared the password setting not knowing if that may be it...it wasn't. ( I bought this board from someone...got a great deal on board/ram/cpu/hsf combo )

I can go to the properties\shortcut\advanced\run with different credentials...of each program and get it done that way....but there must be a simple fix for this.

What is that command...can't remember it correctly...'clearusername'...or something like that?

Also...probably connected to this...there are no icons in the system tray...because they are not authorized yet?

I tried to access the 'security' category in control panel but I'm locked out there...tried to access 'set program access and defaults' in the 'start menu'...locked out also.

As I first stated...I'm a little surprised that I was able to even get this far without doing a repair or re-install.
