I'm have been unable to solve this issue for the last few hours. When I'm logged in under my admin account or not logged in at all, just as a visitor, the posts are sorted as I'd like them, original/oldest post on top, and scroll down to read the most recent replies, the most recent reply being at the very bottom.

When logged in as a normal registered member, it's quite the opposite, and I cannot figure out how to change it. Even changing the display options at the bottom of the category have no effect.

Example (this is what it looks like):

Forum/Category A:
Thread 02/04/08
Thread 02/01/08
Thread 01/17/08
Post/Reply 02/04/08
Post/Reply 02/03/08
Post/Reply 01/17/08
Thread 12/28/07

Ideally, i'd like it to display as:

Forum/Category A:
Thread 02/04/08
Thread 02/01/08
Thread 01/17/08
Post/Reply 01/17/08
Post/Reply 02/03/08
Post/Reply 02/04/08
Thread 12/28/07

I'm a bit confused about exactly what you are talking about. You are talking about threads and posts. So, are you talking about the forumdisplay page or the showthread page? Can you give a link to exactly what we should look at first as a guest and then as a logged in user?

There are two places to set this, in the forum itself and in usercp, edit the forum in the admincp.

Check the sort order of the forums doing it and also check your usercp when logged in.

Guests are going to follow the sort order of the forum itself.
