I am relatively inexperienced on computer use. My question is this: My son
who built my computer put me scads of music on Windows Media for me to listen
to. He also installed a CD Burner so I can burn CD's. When I try to burn a
CD a window pops up that says I must be the administrator to burn the CD. I
am the Administrator on my computer. Will someone please tell me in simple
terms how to correct this problem without accidently losing all the music he
put in? I would be very greatful. Thanking you in advance. Richard B. Smith

That sounds odd - are you on a windows 2000 machine ?
Nero burnrights ought to be able to reset those permissions :

You'll need to login as administrator to install and configure that,
afterwards you can continue to use your starndard user account though.
