Hello everyone. I am having a problem and hopefully someone can assist me. I recently had my hard drive crash and I didnt bring my system discs with me to Iraq. I installed XP professional on my HP Media Center PC m1280n system and I have completed all windows updates with SP2. I downloaded the Realtek HD Audio driver Setup file, sp26552.exe, but when I execute the file it closes after giving me the following message:
You must be logged on as the PC Administrator to install this update I set up an Administrator login when I installed XP professional and I logged into it before I even downloaded the file and attempted to install it. I am really baffled. Does anyone have any helpful hints for me? You assistance is greatly appreciated. |

The account with which you have logged in as does not have administrative privileges.
All you need to do is right-click the installer file and choose 'Run As'. Select the Administrator account from the drop down box and enter the password.
