Having Network "issues"

Hello all - I am using Hog4 PC in a PC lab situation and my network folks are "shutting down" my accounts as the Hog seems to need to run on an account that has administrative privileges... funny high school students seem to like to be able to administer accounts and settings they shouldn't need to be messing with....:aiwebs_030:!

With windows 7 the program refuses to run because the computer "is making changes to this computer" and of course the default setting now in place with admin is the "hell no you are not making changes:nono:" setting.

Does someone know a work around (i.e. what files / folders need to be accessed / administered) so that I can get our tech folks to give students logging in permission to run the program:dunno:?

Thanks

  • I have had to deal with this in the past...and the IT folks at one High School were able to give the students a computer that would only be used for running lighting.

    They didn't ghost the computer with all the school programs and default features they implement on computers school wide. It was a basic installation of either XP or 7, single user account which had administrator access.

    In that instance, they didn't connect the computer to the network at all.

    See if they have an old computer they could allocate for this, reinstall the OS, and only use it for lighting.
