Font Install Question

I didn't want to mess up the resources thread with this question but how do you install them?  I got a couple that I liked and I pasted them into the Fonts folder and it keeps saying "Windows is using these at this time - trying installing later."

Would this be the fact that I don't have admin rights to install programs?

Don't know, never had that problem.  Try closing any programs that use fonts like Photoshop or Word.

Found out the answer is that you have to have admin rights to install fonts.

Are you running vista?  I don't think I am logged in as an admin, but I don't know, maybe I am.  It could be how you have your computer set up.  Did you get them installed okay then?
