Can't play game with limited account on XP Pro SP2

I run XP Pro SP2 and have my son set up with a limited account. He has this game, "The Sims", he likes to play, but as long as his account is limited, he is unable to play it. I tried leaving his account limited, but placing him in the power users group, but then his account changed from limited to unknown and he still couldn't play. The only way he is able to play this game is with Admin rights. Is there another way around this? I'm tired of changing his rights just so he can play this game. Besides, when I do change them, I have to sit there to make sure he doesn't do something stupid. I know he wouldn't do anything deliberately, but I don't want to give him Admin rights either. Any suggestions?
