I just loaded my copy of the FS2004 but when I click on the icon to play I get this box message: "Please login with administrator privileges and try again". In the Control Panel I already am listed as Administrator. Can anyone tell me what administrator privileges is it talking about?

Thanks.

I believe that this was caused by a Microsoft "update" which renders programs requiring a CD in the player to be disabled (for security reasons ..... what a laugh).
You could roll back the offending update, but unless you know what you're doing .... it will just come back
SO........
The simplest way to get your FS2004 back up and running is to get the NO-CD crack (I believe available on this website) and use it to start FS2004. No problems after that!

Fixes the need to have to load the CD in FS2004 every time you use it. Saves the CD and a lot of time. This is the No-CD patch for Flight Simulator 2004. Simply replace the fs9.exe file in the root folder with this one and play away! Enjoy!
