installing newer driver problem

[fairchib]

my laptop said there was a newer driver for my HP Envy 7645 which is out of warranty. I followed the instructions, downloaded the  framework and driver.  I started the install and got an error that I am not the administrator of my computer.  but I am.  what do I do?  Help. please?  If you can't see the message clearly it says;

Installation Error

Call to driver package Uninstall re turned error 5 for package 'C:\\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FilerRepository\

hpwia_en7640.inf_amd64_c530c8dfd7e66dtf0\hpwia_en7640.inf':  call of DriverPackageInstall must be a member of the Administrators group to install a driver package

This is a permission / ownership error.
