I can create another account with administrator rights and that
account will allow me to "sort the start menu".

I've tried the MS knowledge base tips, but the computer always finds
"another program in use" and can't complete the transfer.

How do I fix the HP administrator account or migrate all of its
settings to the new administrator account?

only complete idiots would have used xp's administrator account as their
user account.

format and reinstall.
