Trying to install HP 7660 printer drivers in Windows 8 Pro 64 bit and the installation disc comes up with the error...

"Administrator Rights: This system does not meet one or more of the minimum requriements needed to install this product. The installation cannot continue."

So essentially it is saying that I do not have administrator rights. I am the sole user and administrator on my computer, but I also created an administrator account after encountering this problem, but the software still tells me I do not have administrator rights and cannot install the needed drivers.

HELP! Thanks in advance...
