Answer 3 :
go "Control Panel" an click "Account" then Create a administrator Account
Answer 4 :
You don't need to set up an Administrator Account. You are already the Administrator. You only need that one account. If your the only one using it you don't need any more accounts, user or otherwise. Start sticking in unnecessary accounts all over the place and you will start running into permission and access problems to files etc.
