[QUOTE="garlicbreath, post: 63116, member: 22105"] I am trying to run media portal on my laptop by my TV strictly for music. No TV input, conversion, nothing but MP3's. I can not get it to work under the user account I setup for this. I changed the user account to be a member of administrators, and it still wont work. I re-installed media portal after adding admin rights, same thing. It opens a media portal splash screen for a few second then poof, it's gone. If I log into my account, which has always had admin rights, it works perfect. I even tried installing it with my account, then opening with the user I call Music, with that user having admin rights, same thing. BUT, if I log in as music, and browse to the .exe in the media portal folder, and right click Run As, then put in my user and password, it works fine. Basically I want this to work, on a BASIC user account so when I have friends over, they can play whatever music they want, without me worrying about some numskull messing up my system. Thus the need to limit the user rights on the music account. [/QUOTE]
