Hello all, Did some searching, no luck, so I hope someone here can help please. I got a computer from someone with Windows 7 on it, and they had already created their account. I was tired of their initials being on everything and changed the name of the account. That was a surface fix and...

Hi all I'm trying to help out some friends of mine who're not overly PC savvy & who've run into a problem that I'm equally at a loss to help them with. I appreciate, before I ask, that it may be equally tough for anyone here to know how to track down the problem, but hope that perhaps the info...
