I am trying to download Real Player on Windows XP Home. This is because my computer crashed recently and I had to perform a complete recovery. I never had any problems with this before. However now it partly installs and then says I do not have administrative rights. But I am the only operator on this computer and do have these rights. I have tried creating another user as suggested by Real Player's website etc etc. and downloading from that but nothing seems to work Please can anyone help before I go insane !!

I will suggest you to delete it and remove any folder from Programs it could have left so there is no trace of real player on your computer and download it again.
I hope that helps you

Real player is considered malware. There are 100's of other freeware programs that can do what realplayer does, without the ad's and crapware.

If you absolutely must have something liek Real Player. Try "Real Alternative".

Run a good registry cleaner as well before trying to reinstall.
