    Hi! All I dont know if this question is relevant to this forum but I have no other options. I have an MFC application for which I have created an installion using Install Shield. Iam installing the application on a Windows XP System. If I login under an administrator account, the software installs and runs properly. However when I login as any other user who does not have administrator privileges, the software refuses to run. I thought this might be a problem with registration of some of the related dll files and tried to register them manually but I get an error message saying "DllRegisterServer failed Error code 0x80040200". Some of these dlls have been created using ATL and some are the standard Microsoft dlls like Capicom.dll. Can anyone please help :((. Thanks in advance. Regards Pradeep.

      Unfortunately you have no choice. If the registration requires administative privileges then you must install with an account that has such privileges. After installation you will be able to use the software under the other accounts that do not posess administrative privileges. Ant. I'm hard, yet soft.

        Hi! Thanks for the reply. I tried to login as a non-administrator and debug the application source code to see where it is crashing. The application object gets created but the control never reaches InitInstance. It crashes midway showing error in Kernel32.dll Any ideas? Thanks Pradeep.
