Windows Administrator access

After gaining shell access to a Windows box, is there any way to show
administrator privilege without changing the config or uploading new
files?

I have to demo the ability to gain administrator access to a Win 2000
box, the catch is no changes on the box so adding a user or loading
whoami.exe from resource kit would not be options. Any suggestion here
would be appreciated.

Thanks
