"Access denied" to run msconfig yet all accounts are administrator

Hi

When I try to run msconfig I get an access denied message saying that I am
not using an Administrator account.

All accounts on my PC are Administrator acccounts.

How can I run msconfig ?

If I start in Safe mode, I can open the separate "Administrator" account but
cannot type anything as it would appear not to recognise my keyboard at all.

Using Windows XP Home Edition SP2

Thanks for any help

Ignore it. Some security software causes the interference and bogus
alert. When you make the changes and reboot, those changes are
effected.

Thanks for the response. You're right! ( Although you probably already knew that :) )
