This is a packard bell AMD 64 Athlon X2 running Windows Vista Home premium 1GB RAM. I am already an administrator. When I ran 'disable UAC' with Mark Kaelin's batch file, I got access denied. When I tried to elevate the command with shift-control-enter, it did not elevate. CAn anyone help please?

To perform the following procedure, you must be logged into a client computer as a member of the local administrators group. You cannot be logged in with the computer (or built-in) administrator account because Admin Approval Mode does not apply to this account.

Press the Win keyboard key or click on Vista Start button.
Type cmd into the Start Search textbox.

Press Ctrl+Shift+Enter keyboard shortcut.
Ctrl-Shift-Enter is the general keyboard shortcut that triggers elevation to ?Run as Administrator?.
Press Alt+C or press Continue to confirm the
UAC elevation warning prompt.
