I am having a problem with my xp home ps2. I suddenly am unable to access the
"users" option and the "performance and maintenance". I am getting a message
saying that I either don't have permissions, or that the MMC has not been
created, installed or has changed. It is a home computer with only me using
it, so why would it tell me I don't have permissions? Is there anyway to
restore these functions? I need to do some maintenance on my machine and
can't get to the tools.
