ADMINISTRATOR PRIVLEGES PROBLEM

[human]

I'm Running XP Home.

Just installed Combat Flight Sim. by Microsoft (CFS3)

When I try to load the program from any of three Icons, I get the

message "Log On With Administrator Privleges".

The Two User Logins that I setup, both have admin privs.

I've retried reloading CFS3 many times, and on to other drives.

I saw on microsoft game web page, some note saying that using win XP
with some games needs admin log-on privs..

I thought the log-ins I set up with admin privs should be enough.

I Hope there is a button I need to push somewhere.

Thanks Mike

I don't have a clue but love to chat?
I wonder if you would remove the other two administrators accounts if the
problem would still exist?
At least you would then know that it is in the program assesability features
and not your administrator accounts..
Conputers are funny that way?
conflicts do and can exist...
wouldn't hurt to try?
If it don't load then , you'd know it's the games fault and seek an answer
there.

I'm sorry and I don't want to hurt your feelings, but that is not only
wrong but harmful advice. There is no reason for the OP to remove other
accounts from his computer. Computers are not "funny that way". And
this is not a chat room. Please learn to quote some of the original
post.

I spent some time Googling around for this error with your specific game
with little success. Some games with this issue have patches to solve
it, such as The Sims, so most definitely you should check at the
gamesite first. Here's the support page for Microsoft games.

http://support.microsoft.com/?pr=gms

On the right side of the page there is a link for contacting a "support
professional". I would do this since it is doubtful you are the only
user who has experienced this problem. I'm sorry not to have a
definitive answer for you, but you might also want to check out the
links on that page to the Expert Zone, etc.

Good luck,
