    Hi there,

    My sister is having problems installing the Vodafone USB modem (K3520) on XP home. She is logged in with an Admin account but the installation is saying that it cant install because she doesnt have admin rights. She has installed other apps in the past, Any ideas?

    Its not an exe its a USB Install - thats not an option. however if this is the connectivity software youre talking about yes: do as pdevo says.

    OP make SURE she is the administrator for the machine: go to User Accounts in the Control Panel.

    Yes, She is admin, tried it on 2 accounts which are admin, its XP home so i dont think you can do a run as with he built in admin account, thats only accessable in Safe mode.
