How do I remove the Builtin\Administrators group with TSQL?

[laker42]

I am creating a script that will perform a bunch of steps to lock down any new servers that we create. One of the steps is to remove the builtin\Administrators group. I have tried using sp_dropgroup and sp_droprole but neither of them work. Is there a way to drop this group via TSQL?

Thanks!

This is a login not a group (as far as sql server is concerned)

look at sp_droplogin

When I run sp_droplogin 'BUILTIN\Administrators' it comes back and says the login does not exist. If you go into EM, it is right there. Any other ideas?
