I am trying to install the Sitting Ducks game on a PC which runs XP
(Home). When installed under Admin rights, the Admin can play the game.
A normal user can see the start menu, and the up/down keys work, but the
space or Return/Enter keys do not which are needed to activate the
selection. No other key does anything either.

What could be the cause of this?
Any help is appreciated.

Is there a way to install such games directly in a non-administrator
account?
