Not sure if this will help, but here goes.
.NET 1.x pretty much requires that the user is a local Admin. While Domain
Admin should solve this, I am not sure it is a definite fix, as you can have
specific Policy on the user account that contains a deny, which would
override his permissions.
I do not have the URL in front of me (will try to find it), but there is a
white paper on how to set up a user without making him an admin. I have found
that this works in most cases, but there are still times when policy bites
you and you have to resort to making the user an admin.
Beyond that, here are some suggestions:
1. Set the user up in both VS Developers and Debugger Users. This is a
common sticking point.
2. Ensure IIS is set up properly for ASP.NET. The easiest manner is running
aspnet_regiis /i from a .NET command prompt. You will probably have to be
logged in as an admin to run this.

3. Assume the user's box is not a DC, so you can likely ignore this one:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q315158
4. This one is a bit strange, but happens in some machines (try permissions,
etc., first). The message limit is hit before the final success message. The
solution here is:
a. Run regedit .exe
b. Find the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Windows \USERPostMessageLimit
c. Change USERPostMessageLimit (DWord) to a value greater than 10,000
(create if not there)
d. Reboot
