Hello,

I recently installed a bluetooth dongle on my Win XP Pro PC to communicate with my cellular phone.
All works well when under admin user, but the link is cut under any limited account.
I don't want to work any time under with admin account.

Thank you for your help,

Jean-Jacques Vergier

From the sound of it, it sounds like you are not in a domain environment. That would mean that the local security policy would have to be altered to give you more rights under a user account.

If you go into the control panel and switch to the classic view, go into local security policy.

Under local policies, go to security options. You'll find a policy there that says, "Devices: Allowed to format and eject removable media."

Add the group you are in to this setting or just you user account.

Also, under User Rights Assignment, you should allow yourself to load and unload device drivers.

Hope this helps.
