Error message when trying to play older games on XP or Vista

How many of you out there are game players. When you try to play an older game on an XP or Vista computer, do you get an error message something in regard to “Game requires administrative rights to play”. Better yetm you may be able to play, but the game doesn’t allow you to save or open the file you need or XP or Vista not recognize the game disc at all. These problems can be caused by using a limited user account needing admin privileges. KB article 893677 provides workarounds for both operating systems.
