Vista will not install software

Having just bought a Sony Vaio (no criticism) with Vista Premium I think that the boss must have been taking a holiday when Vista was designed.

Brand new laptop, marvellous bit of kit but just tried to install some Pinnacle Software.

Computer says, you require administrator rights to install this software, Log-in as an administrator and try again.

Only issue is that I am logged in already as an Administator so what's the problem?

Is there anyway of turning this "protection" off. I don't fear viruses, I walk around in the Isle of Man in a tea-shirt, even in summer

Just about to trade in for a Mac, well two, live in the IOM

Any help appreciated guys

ATB,
Torchy
