Hi Dini,

I'm sure you got the pc from an intitute or office where only the
moderator is allowed to make changes in the registry. In case you
have windows XP you can try "systemrecovery" (I don't know the
english term for it. It can be found here: Start, Officeworkset and
than systemworkset and than you see "systemrecovery" (it's possible
that in english it has a specific name. If you have found this than
you "go back in time" by picking a date in the past (on the right
site you can see the changes that had been made at that particular
date; go as far back in time until you found the date that the shop
where it has been bought had put the original software on it (that
was before the moderator put in the restrictions. If you have
another windowsversion you might consider formatting the hard drive
but than you also have to install the right drivers for the VGA
screen, audio-equipment etc.

I hope you can do something with my reply.

I wish you well,
Friedrich from Holland
