Usually this is just because of a few missing file or
registry permissions and can be fixed without the need
to grant Admin privileges. Filemon and Regmon from
www.sysinternals.com or other utilities can help you
determine what needs to change.

The latter. You cannot reliably create a weak Admin

suggestion about the RunAs icon, while not 100%
secure, is still a possibility.
