Windows XP restricted User cannot Run Application

Asked by elschott in CAD & Architecture Software

Tags: Autodesk, AutoCAD 2008

Hello

I have recently installed autocad 2008 using an administrators account. I then logged into my restricted user account with admin rights and let it install itself into this profile, the program launches and runs fine. I then changed the account type to limited and the program doesn't run not even an error, if I change the priveleges back to administrator it seems to work fine but as a limited user never seems to work. I have noticed a few posts on the net about this, but have not been able to ascertain a difinitive answer if it is possible to run autocad without admin privileges, note power users also did not work for me. I am running windows xp sp2.

Thanks for the advice
