Service Pack Access Denied setupapi.log

[hgdev]

Been trying to install SP3 or SP4, but get the 'access denied' error
message.

I saw a post about setting a new value in the registry and then
looking for the 'access denied' in the setupapi.log
So below is a snippit from that log.

What I don't understand is how to change the permissions for the
files/keys. And I don't understand from the strings below wether or
not it is a key or an actual file that is the problem?

AND, I do have REGMON.exe installed and working, but don't know how to
read what is denied there either.

Your great help appreciated.
Thanks.

hgdev

Use the Security menu in REGEDT32.EXE to change permissions in the
registry.

You might also need to change permissions on this registry key:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

This key needs to be altered in order to install files after a reboot.
