DB2 8.1 PE Installation on WinXP -- Invalid User Authority

Hi guys,
I'm trying to install DB2 v8.1 personal edition on WinXP, but keep
getting complaint from installation program about invalid authority to
perform the installation.

I have Administrator account on local computer, and another logon
account for daily use:
User Name: Domain: Group:
admin (local computer) Administrators
myself (certain windows domain) Administrators
I'm using user "myself" to do the installation.

Theoratically user "myself" should have same system administrator
previlige, however, installation program still complain about invalid
authority, and suggests "installati on must be performed by user within
administrator group".

Can anybody explain me what the problem is here? How do I solve this
problem?

Many Thanks,
Thomas

Check user priviledge requirements in the Quick Beginnings Guide. There
is more than administrator that is required (I think e.g. "act on behalf
of OS").
