Lack of access rights problem on Vista?

1 New Member
I recently purchased a new laptop and after getting Football Manager 2008 installed on the computer no shortcut or file in the start menu appeared.

I proceeded to create a shortcut and switched off the User Account Control (UAC) as I was advised to by a friend.

This allowed the program to run and i was then able to play. However on restarting my computer i tried to play the game but an error pop up arose. The pop up stated " You do not have sufficient access rights to run the application" even though i had not changed any settings since i played the game last and i am the Administrator.

My question is how can i get the application to work?
