Hello John,

By default the account that is first setup in Vista is and
administrator account. If you mean the Built-In Administrator account
instead, then this tutorial will show you how to enable it so you can
log in to it when you like.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

In addition to Rick's answer, why do you need to? Most things can be
accomplished by using "Right-click-run as administrator"....
