Game says needs to be installed in Administrator when it was

Hi,

When I was running Ricky Ponting International Cricket 2005 Demo, it comes
up with a dialogue box "Protection" saying that "To install the application,
you must have Administrator privileges on your computer." However, this
account is an administrator account and it has already been installed, so I
am unsure why it is asking for this. If you need more details, I can provide
you with them.

Try turning off UAC:

Right click the exe and run as admin and it will install, if not disable UAC.
