Question about 'Windows keeps forgetting simple settings, such as screen colors!'

I have a question about Windows keeps forgetting simple settings, such as screen colors!:

Ok, my computer was formerly owned by a Real Estate agency, and I've had it about a year. It worked fine when I got it, but some time ago, the screen colors went downhill. I don't have access to my Control Panel, because it tells me it can only be accessed by the Administrator. What can I do?!

It would have been nice to have seen the real problem on the Subject line.

"Administrator" is not a something you typically see on Windows 98.
Are you running Windows 98?

If not, say so here then go to the proper forum.

If so, someone ran System Policy Editor on it:
