I am having the same problem as mentioned in Bug #2224.

I am trying to install 3ds max on Wine.  When I launch the installer, it 
complains about not having administrative privileges and exits.  3ds max 
requires 2000/XP for installation, so reverting to Windows 98 is not possible.

Is there any way to make Wine assume that I have administative privileges 
across the board?
