How do I allow my children to play games that I installed as an administrator on this O/S. They log in as a normal user, but they can't play the games I have installed. i.e. Black and White, and RA2.

I would rather not log in for them and let them play while logged in as an administrator.

How do I if at all change the permissions to allow this to happen.

Thanks to anyone that can assist.

Check the permissions on the directories where the games were installed and make sure thier logon has change status. Also make sure the shortcut to the game has full user access. If this isn't the problem you could turn on the "run as" option from the shortcut properties. You can then make a new admin account ( or try it with power user first) to use to run the game. Problem with this is if the kids put two and two together they can just login as that new account and bypass your security. Control Panels> Administrative Tools>Local Security Policy give you access to edit user rights- but its hard to say what right the game is violating.
