X64 Vista Ultimate UAC

Hey everyone so I reinstalled Vista Ultimate for the 10th time in 3 days trying to remove the UAC.
Google was not my friend this time and I am about ready to fly to Bill Gates house and slap him silly.

I am a lazy git I hate the idea of having to boot up hitting F8 when I wake up in the morning. My routine is boot PC up stumble to the kitchen get caffeine in my body shave/shower then spend a hour online before work.

So PC Alert 4 / Geforce 8800GT drivers / PG2 / Rivatuner don't seem to work at all when UAC is active due to unsigned drivers this is a major issue since 8800GT has to have fan profiles or it over heats at 20% fan rpm.

IS there a reliable method to fully disable UAC in vista? I got to admit I like the OS more then I did before SP1 but UAC is just killing me ANY changes I make I get a "repair vista" error and after about 2 repairs it forces me to reinstall.

I have Vista Ultimate x64 SP1 I am reinstalling it now on the rig after a recent blunder.
 
My rig is
X2 4400+ 2.3ghz
8800GT 512mb GPU
250gb HD
4x 1gb G-skill pc6400
MSI K9N SLI V2 nForce 570LT Socket AM2
vx450w PSU
Lite-on DVDRW LH-20A1S​

I apologize I just noticed my second system has a different user name. I hardly ever use it since I mainly use it as a HD back up system.
 
All you have to do is Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > And then I believe the option is "Disable User Account Control (UAC). It's a simple check box to disable it.
 
Start, control panel, user accounts. Then click the "turn user account control on or off" button.
Edit: Omega beat me to it.
 
That's odd. After I install Vista, my very first step is to disable UAC. I've never had any problem with it once it's been disabled....even after installing SP1.
 
Worked like a charm thank you very much. I think I mis-typed I ment the digital driver thing but I found a fix that worked :D
