Rick, where is this particular user located? try move this user to the same
location in the directory as administrator and se if that helps. If it dose
there is a policy prevent the particular user from what you said become a
local administrator I'm not know exactly what you mean here?

Logged in as this particular user you can use the command line based tool
gpresult (built in at WindowsXP and Windows Server 2003) to show applied
policies.

Download gpresult for Windows2000:
