When i change a user account from administrator to user, after loging into
that account a box appears with "fAIL". If i switch the account back to
administrator this fAIL box does not appear. Any suggestions or help would
be
great! Thanks

And what does the "fail" refer to?

What does that account run at login? Not all software is able to run with
limited accounts, and you're going to have to do a little work to figure out
what is referred to.
