Default SIMS is getting a Fatal Error Under other Users

Hi Skip,

Try it this way. Under the Kids' account, try running the game under your
credentials. That is, right click the shortcut to the game, and click Run
As. Under the following dialog box choose your username and password and run
the game. See if it helps.

All the best,

Everyone at home has their own account. The kids are set
to limited.
I installed The SIMS logged in under me. It runs without
a problem under my loggin but when the kids try to run it
at their loggin a Fatal Error occurs.

"FATAL ERROR: Game cannot be started because: There is
not enough memory or hard drive space to run"

This occurs even when they are the only one logged on.
We have 384MB of RAM and 20GB of Hard Drive still
available. This message does not make sense.
I assume it has something to do with a share setting, but
I have been unable to figure out what is necessary from
the HELP(less) Menu.
I would appreciate some insight from anyone who may have
a solution to our little problem.
Skip
