Vista snipping tool not working.

Maybe I should shut up now with my Home Basic Vista: Tablet PC (which Snipping Tool is part of) is only available from Home Premium and upwards.

Here is some more info on the Snipping Tool issue. On Vista Business, logged in to the local Admin account, snipping tool works fine. Logged in as any othe user (even one that has been added to the local admins group), snipping tool gives an error. Even right clicking the shortcut in the start menu and running as administrator fails. Interestingly enough though, I manually copied a shortcut to my quicklaunch tray, and I changed the properties of it to run as administrator and it works! I have no idea why. Well, just went back to double check everything and now it won't run again. I have no idea what is up with this tool. Maybe it's the video drivers???
