Hi, we've had some small issues related to Express Scribe and lack of Admin rights on a workstation too - not quite the same as you, but related I think. Do your users have full rights to the area that the dictation files are loaded?? We can load and play files from email attachments and local/network files, and users can change settings, we just can't do some things like "File" -> "Load Audio CD Tracks" - we just get a blank list where the tracks should be listed if they are not Administrators of the Workstation - so I think it's a rights issue over this device. Not sure though - only just realised that this was a problem today when someone wanted to do it. Good luck fixing yours - I'm pretty sure it will be a rights issue on a directory or device.

Have you installed the DSS plugin? (dss32.exe) from http://www.nch.com.au/components/ If not, you will need to download it and install it before Express Scribe will play DSS files.
