Problem with limited user a/c

[Guest]

Hi, I just bought splinter cell : pandora tomorrow. I have two accounts on my xp pro>> one administrator, the other limited. The game works fine on the admin a/c but shows an error in the limited one.
Earlier with Prince of Persia Sands of Time, I couldnt save in limited a/c as it said ' not enough space on your hard disk'. The problem wasnt there once I converted it into an administrator a/c....
Any solutions for splinter cell other than changing the user type would be great and helpful.................

Limited accounts don't have the rights needed to manipulate files on the
hard drive. You need the proper permissions. Take a look at this Knowledge
Base article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;307091
You're in good position because you have Pro instead of Home.

No, if you read the Knowledge Base article I cited, you'll see the method of
allowing Limited accounts (on XP Pro). There is also additional information
here:
