Running Myriad v3.5 as a non-administrator

Here at Winchester Hospital Radio, we are trying to tighten-up security of our computer network. As part of this, we want to run Myriad v3.5 (currently v3.5.9) whilst logged-in to an account without Windows administrative privileges.

We have found that this works on all our workstations except one, which throws the following error messages when Myriad is launched from the unprivileged account:

P Squared Myriad Core Engine (v3.5)
Run-time error '440':
Automation Error

P Squared Graphical Controls v3
Run-time error '0'
P Squared Audio Engine (v3.5)

Run-time error -2147418105 (800100007)
Automation Error
The callee (server [not server application]) is not available and disappeared; all connections are invalid. The call may have executed.

Myriad works fine when logged-in as an account with administrative privileges. We've also tried un-installing and re-installing Myriad on this workstation without making any difference.

Any suggestions as to what could be different on this workstation and/or how to fix it?

Cheers,

Nigel

At Xtreme, we have the normal user account a Power User account. Not ideal, but better than full Administrator access, and Myriad works fine with Power User accounts.
