Grrrr...Ok, been having issues with the found new hardware wizard, and tried to disable it.  Honestly can't remember what I did or how I got there, happened last night and I didn't think too much about it.  Anyway, did something, bad things happened, undid it, but somehow, I didn't have full admin permissions to install programs.  I'm running as admin, but haven't found any restrictions on me.  Googled the problem, and came up with a changed registry key: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer \disableMSI.  I modified the value from 2 to 0, and I seem to have full access to everything again, but I'm not entirely sure what I did or if its gonna blow a hole in the earth.  Did I just tell mah computer to divide by zero?  Is this the right way to make sure I have full access, or should I look elsewhere?
