Installing Apps

Use add/remove programs or type "change user /install" (remember to type "change user /execute" when finished).
If having problems try logging on to console, or using a local account (as opposed to domain logon). I had to do this with EA 3000.

Also stop people from logging in while you are installing apps, using "change logon /disable". (note this also stops the Administrator from logging in... so make sure you don't get kicked out!)
