Default AoE2 only works as "administrator" on Vista


please I need some help I just installed age of empires 2 on my computer from
my account (administrator) and works fine, but when my son log on to his
account (limited) he's not able to play, the game loads fine until I click on
start a new game but this only happens on my son's limited account

Install the game to the c:\users\public\ folders. The 'save' folder path is
probably set to a folder he lacks Permissions for.
