Mike gave the answer for adding the domain user to the local administrators group and
additionally you also might want to contact or visit the website of those
manufacturers and ask them if they now how to allow regular users to use their
product. It might be able to be accomplished with a change to ntfs/registry
permissions and or user rights or possibly after the devices have been installed
there is a way to allow regular users to use them. One thing to try is in Local
Security Policy/security settings/user rights give users [or specific user ] the
right to load and unload device drivers. --- Steve
