I have noticed for a few months now that I keep getting asked to come install some type of peripheral onto an laptop. This includes USB driven: keyboards, mouse, drives (flash and external), etc. I have tried using installing them under: the user (run as), and logged in as admin. I if the device has been unplugged for a while, say the user when to a training class, and the user plugs it in it comes up with the need credentials to install this device. I am thinking the only way around this is to set all laptop users as Power Users.

Does anyone know of an easy way to handle this?

Laptops are running xp pro with domain user rights.
