Just installed the service pack 4 to my Win2000
Professional. Trying to install an external DVD burner
with horrendous results; it will install but when I
try to use any features it gives me a "bus reset" error
and it uninstalls from device mgr but NOT from the
registry! Needed to edit registry current control set and
unable to do so. I AM able to edit software keys in
regedit32 but not system. I checked other registry posts
especially wonderful info from Dave Patrick re looking at
entries in Group Policy, etc. Am operating a single
desktop computer -- new 2.4Ghz Pentium4 with Win2000
Professional. I am the Administrator and gave myself full
privileges as user also but unable to edit parts of
registry even under Administrator. When a key cannot be
deleted it says "unable to delete; the key does not give
you delete access." I did the *.reg merge Mr. Patrick
suggested and checked that the group policy adm template
said
"User Config\Admin Templates\System\Prevent Access To
registry Editing Tools
= "Not Configured"
Help, please! Am fairly new to Win2000 Professional so
may be missing something everyone else knows about!
Sincerely, BJ Vreeman
