I wanted to try it, but now is just too much of a headache
As you found out, Vista has two different types of administrators. You need to enable the "Super User" administrator account.

Here's how:

Go to Start and type: cmd.exe In the results, right click the CMD.EXE
item and select the Run As Administrator option.

In the command window, type the following:

net user administrator /active:yes

And press Enter.

You can now open Control Panel/User Accounts and you will see the
Administrator account there. The Administrator account will also show up on the log-in screen.
