Try this solution (as sent to me from someone at the GF):

Unlock Centurion Guard using your key.
Turn the PC on.
Lock on as exec.
Click Start Search For Files or Folders.
Search For Files Or Folders Named.
Locate the file mmsys.cpl.
There will be several files similar but only 1 named mmsys.cpl.
Right click it.
Choose Properties.
When the grey box comes up, click the Security tab.
Click Add.
Add the user group Everyone.
Click OK or Apply.
Be sure that the "Everyone" group has Read and Execute permission (click on the box to the left.
Click apply and then ok.
Shut the PC down.
Lock Centurion Guard.
Turn the PC back on as normal.

I think was would allow everyone acccess.

Top Hi Again, I had tried that and while that allows a right click to "Adjust Audio Properties" it will not allow "Open Volume Controls" (right click) or the simple volume slider(left click). The ideal fix (for patrons) would be the left click up & down volume control. Thanks for any help, Geo

There is a batch file that automatically does this...

Here is the batch file:
