I didn't post two posts in succession I posted after you did which means I didn't double post. I suggest you read the rules and develop some forum etiquette before resulting to immature responses such as calling me a hypocrite.

Perhaps you are right, but there is slight difference in it all.

There's actually a big difference, I can post in quick succession because I can answer a post by someone who has just answered mine. It's called discussion. Yet in double posting you can hardly answer your own question with an answer now can you? Therefore if people miss out information and no-one has yet answered that thread they will edit there post as to not clog the forum with un-necessary posts.  :)

If this doesn't clarify what i'm trying to say then  :surrender:

The subject is wandering  :offtopic:.

also  :surrender: to what? You sitting their feeling complacent on correcting my mistakes?
Because you posted 400+ times, You made the point the first time, your words are becoming redundant.  It's enough, stop looking at what I am posting and actually go play the game.

This game a wit is lame, seeing as my opponent is only stating the obvious.

Look... I was only trying to help.

Seriously that attitude won't get you anywhere and what does post count have to do with anything?

You called me a hypocrite when it was far from needed so I felt the need to defend my words, I see nothing wrong with that.
* Gharan leaves the pointless thread

I wasn't trying to belittle you just offering advice which next time i'll keep to myself :]

Ummm, I only needed to read the first sentance. Of the second part.
Why did you quote the entire post then?
But you basically made an attempt to say something differen than what I did.
Thanks for trying.
What's that supposed to accomplish? Mind clarifying?
It isnt good to force your comp to shut down, right.
But restart it properly and force shut it down while windows is loading, thats an easy way to bring up safe mode to run comp as an Admin

You should have really thought it over before you replied.  No offence.
He did. There is no real difference between forcing a shutdown while running versus while starting up, unless you know for a fact that no writes to the harddisk have been done yet (which is not easy with Windows, and one may easily claim that the fact that Windows knows the start did not succeed means there has been at least one write to the disk). The proper way to get into safe mode has been explained, wich is using the F8 key.
Also, this kinda isnt about owning or not owning the computer.

My mom makes my user limited account, I have figured out the path, with no help to get around it.
Looks like your mom is much smarter than most people (including yourself), maybe she should be posting here. I wonder what you are going to do when you screw that computer beyond what you are able to fix yourself. Are you going to tell your mother that you screwed with it, or are you going to claim "it just happened"? Will you pay the repair bill? And what happens if important data is lost due to your actions?
That is precisely what has been referred to as "reasons why people don't have administrator rights", and is therefore very much about owning or not owning the computer.
Your mother should lock you out of the computer for a while, to think about messing with other people's stuff without permission.
And yes, I am no freakin tech prodigy, but I try, and learn.
That is commendable. However, that is no excuse for sprouting half-knowledge into the faces of unknowing people, even worse if you're just trying to boost your image by "sounding smart", knowing full well that you're talking BS (kudos for admitting it, though).
Why? Everyone else seems to want to flood my thread, I thought I might jump in.
Do you even know the difference between replying and flooding? It's sad when the corrections turn out to be significantly longer than the original post...
The subject is wandering  :offtopic:.
Yeah, because the topic has been exhausted halfway down the first page. And judging by the amount of information this thread containes, it'd better be deleted, which would also save you the embarassment of having it in your post history.
also  :surrender: to what? You sitting their feeling complacent on correcting my mistakes?
Because you posted 400+ times, You made the point the first time, your words are becoming redundant.  It's enough, stop looking at what I am posting and actually go play the game.
Ah, yes, the "if you don't like my thread, don't read it" attitude. It doesn't work that way, though. Especially not if you're talking BS, and advising to do things that are potentially harmful, without any warning whatsoever.

Also, if you insist on there being some sort of difference, it's natural to clarify or prove why there is no difference.
This game a wit is lame, seeing as my opponent is only stating the obvious.
"Opponent"? He's making valid points, and you fail to acknowledge them. And if they're so obvious, then I must wonder why you didn't act by them in the first place.

BTW, using the postcount in order to try to imply that you / we are thinking we can bash you since you have a lowrer PC (making yourself the victim in the hope to gain sympathy) doesn't work here, because people tend to read the thread before replying.

In fact, Gharan was very nice to you, especially considering the amount of immaturity you displayed and the amount of BS you have been talking.

Vanraa, chill out. We do have rules about double-posting in this forum and Gharan was explaining them. There is no reason to get so aggressive - we can bite back very quickly, I assure you.

When you said no no no no!!!

You should have really thought it over before you replied.  No offence.

Why? I cannot see anything wrong with Hilon's post. And how difficult is it, exactly, to press F8 at the "Starting Windows" text? This is how you are supposed to be loading the menu anyway. No need to jump through extra hoops that have even a slight chance of damaging your PC in the process.
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.
