Inadequate Os privileged Message
PunkBuster now requires players to run the game as an administrator under WinXP/2K?
Because some cheats/hacks cannot be detected otherwise.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there some way to modify my system configuration to be an administrator equivalent from PunkBuster's perspective?
Yes (under Win XP Pro or Win 2K). This can be accomplished by setting certain privileges for the user that will run the
game. To do this, first temporarily log in as an Administrator. Then go to Control Panel => Administrative Tools =>
Local Security Policy. This will open up the Local Security setting window. Expand the Local Policies folder and select, User Rights Assignment. This will bring up a list of security settings for the computer. You will need to add the user that will be launching the game to have the following privileges.
If the user is logged in while making changes, the user must be logged out and back in for the changes to take effect.
Debug Programs
Load and unload device drivers
Manage auditing and security log
Modify Firmware environment values
Profile Single Process
This is done by double clicking on the setting and then the "Add User or Group" button. You can either type the user or group name into the field or click on advanced to select from a list. If you select advanced, you may need to click on
the "Object Types" button and make sure all 3 boxes are checked. Then click "OK". Click on the "Find Now" button to generate a full list of all users and groups on the system. Highlight the user you want to add the rights to and click
"OK". Keep clicking "OK" untill you are back at the Local Security Settings window. Repeat this process for the rest of the list. That user will now be able to play on PB servers without getting kicked for "Inadequate O/S Privileges".
For XP Home Users Additional Info:
Use this solution to make either an Administrator Account or a Limited Account have the correct rights to run correctly:
1) Logon as the Administrator
2) Download NTRights.exe self extracting archive that contains the NTRights.exe and the following batch file:
CODE
c:\ntrights.exe -u Tester +r SeDebugPrivilege
c:\ntrights.exe -u Tester +r SeLoadDriverPrivilege
c:\ntrights.exe -u Tester +r SeSecurityPrivilege
c:\ntrights.exe -u Tester +r SeSystemEnvironmentPrivilege
c:\ntrights.exe -u Tester +r SeProfileSingleProcessPrivilege
pause
3. When you run the exe it will prompt you for the path to extract (default = c:\NTRights\
4. Right click the NTRights.cmd and select Edit, replace "Tester" with the name of your user account name that has the problem.
5. Save and run the NTRights.cmd by double clicking on it
6. Click on the game EXE, and choose "Run as...", enter your limited user and the password and check if you can play that now.
Do NOT log off in this process or log in again with that user! Just do all of the above steps in one go.

How's that?
No platform bigotry here. I use Macs because professionally I'm a graphic designer and photographer. But I have no issues with PCs, I've helped as many people buy Dells as I have people buy Macs. I'd love to put a little Shuttle system together for myself sometime just for fun...
