I am trying to install a network adapter, and I get this
error "an error occured during the installation of the
device. The service database is locked."
And if I continue I get "The system cannot find the file
specified."

Whatever I do I get these messages. I tried changing the
permissions in the registry in the CurrentControlSet and
that did not work. This is really frustrating, I have
tried uninstalling, removing the adapter, reinstalling,
updating the driver, etc., nothing seems to work.

Please H E L P.
 
Check Event Viewer for errors. Some service is probably hung on starting,
hence the error "service database is locked" You may need to restore the
registry form a recent backup if permissions have been altered.
