Using XP Pro SP3 as a novice administrator. Experiencing 3 problems: 1)
Device Manager is empty in both normal & safe modes, 2) F8 will not take me
into Safe Mode but MSConfig will, & 3) Computer display takes a while to load
but eventually does load ok. Otherwise everything is functioning ok. 2008
Norton is installed, up to date, & fully scanned. Plug & Play is
automatically started. When Device Manager is selected the following Device
Manager message displays: “You do not have sufficient privileges to
uninstall devices or to change device properties or device drivers. Please
contact your site administrator or logout & log in again as an administrator
& try again.” In the registry under
HKEY_Local_Machine/System/CurrentControlSet/Enum Permissions for Enum Screen
already has displayed: Both System & Administrator have Full Control & Read
with Advanced Security Settings for Enum screen as Not Inherited Apply to
this Key & Subkeys, Everyone has read with Advanced Security Settings for
Enum screen as Not Inherited Apply to this Key & Subkeys. Please help
resolve the above problems. I’m not good at this so please be explicit.

I too am having the exact same issue.

I have tried turning off and restarting Plug and Play, I have even checked
the permission in my registry. Nothing seems to be resolving this issue.

If you get any clues on resloving this problem, please pass the solution. I
will do the same if I find one.

Thanks,
CommJunkee

Thank you for being the 1st & only person to respond to my posting. My 3
problems began after installing Service Pack 3. The installation of SP3 did
not go smoothly & Microsoft help was required for successful installation of
SP3. The SP3 problem was that after the download of SP3 it would not install
because it kept insisting that I was not an Administrator when I was. After
SP3 successful installation, my 3 problems were noticed. I notified
Microsoft requesting assistance & stated that my existing problems were a
result of installing SP3. Microsoft did assist me & installed a Quick Fix.
Now my 3 problems are gone & all is well. Sorry I can not tell you exactly
what they did. I allowed them to come into my computer remotely & it took a
couple of hours to complete the fix for which I am most grateful. If your
problem began after installing SP3, perhaps you should also contact Microsoft
& ask for assistance. Good luck. Bevy.

Thanks for the quick response and suggestion. I think I will do just that.
I have not found a solution to the problem on any boards that I have searched.

Thanks again

Thanks for the links. Since my problem is already fixed I did not have to
use the Norton/Symantec instructions at the link. But just as a footnote, as
stated at the Norton/Symantec link, I had updated my Norton & I did restart
before I did the SP3 update & I still experienced problems. Perhaps I did
the SP3 update before those instructions were finalized.
