A couple of possibilities could be causing problems for some of you:
* Windows may be installed at a different drive or folder location.
– Verify windows IS installed at C:\Windows
– If installed at a different location, change the path as necessary.

* Verify that you have Administrator rights. If you do not, Windows may not allow you to change registry settings.

* A virus, Worm, Torjan, or Malware could of corrupted system files or altered permissions. If this happened, you will want to clean any viruses from your system and then repair the damage caused.

With the two methods, the problem still persists…quite annoying…i guess this was caused by an attack of a worm or similar crap in my pc recently…any alternate solutions? thanks!
