  • E-mail me on my youtube account for any questions

  • Everything is in the text box. I tested it on a Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, and Vista and it works dude.

    You may not be an administrator to your computer.

    If your not than it won't work.

    You are probably a "Simple User"

    Go to Control Panel Click on "User Accounts" and try to change your account type to administrator.

    If you can't than find out which account on your computer is an administrator and go onto that account then change your account to administrator.
