even if you do make an admin account, it will 'disappear' when you restart the computer :p

trust me, the only way around this is to format.

If you upgraded to Vista without formatting, assuming you're using a Vista CD, yes, that should work. If you install Vista as an upgrade from within XP, well, i think you can guess the result by now... :rolleyes:

no, it will not work. if you do ANYTHING to the computer while XP is loaded, it will be restored upon rebooting, guaranteed
