Hi - Sorry for cross posting to both winde-devel and wine-users but I need to try and get an answer today on this. I'm at my dad's house and using Wine on his computer.
How can I tell Wine to trick an install program into thinking the user has administrator rights under Windows XP? I've switched the windows type in the config file to winxp but the install program for Autocad 2005 tells me to log in again as an administrator.
Thanks in advance, Mark

My guess is that it's either unable to write to a system directory or it's looking for a certain group membership. Try tracing the installer and see if it's doing something like that.
