Does anyone know what the SP2 error messages mean?

[Brian M]

Sorry for the repost but still haven't got any solutions yet. Does anyone
know what the error messages in the setupapi.log file below mean and how can
I fix them. I have tried to use everything I have found so far in this
forum and on the MS Knowledge base and all links I've seen over the past 2
weeks in this newsgroup including:

Removed Spyware
Disabled AV
Created new profile
Installed in Safe mode
Edited permissions in Registry (the ones I could find)
Tried w/ Auto Upd, CD and Download
Also, have done Safemode, loged in as Admin, done a disk cleanup and defrag,
emptied cookies, temp files etc.I have no disk management tools and an
identical config to the 2 other XP home machines.


I still get numerous errors in the setupapi.log file. There are two types
and alot of each Access Denied and Copy errors. Man this is frustrating. I
have 4 pc's and had troubles w/ 2 fo the 4. Both XP home versions (properly
licensed). The other XP home and the XP pro machines worked fine. I get
hung up on the Install of msmgrs.inf file but the log shows dozens of these
errors.

Help????
TIA,
Brian

Example of Access Denied errors:

#E065 Parsing AddReg section [Product.Add.Reg] in
"c:\3874d6772cbe490a76\i386\update\update.inf" failed. Error 5: Access is
denied.
#E064 Parsing install section [ProductInstall.GlobalRegistryChanges.Install]
in "c:\3874d6772cbe490a76\i386\update\update.inf" failed. Error 5: Access is
denied.
#E008 Setting registry value HKCR\.ivf\PersistentHandler
#E033 Error 5: Access is denied.

Example of copy errors:

#E197 Writing "C:\WINDOWS\INF\wmp.inf" to "C:\WINDOWS\INF" is not an
approved method of installing INF files. Use a 'CopyINF' entry instead.
#E197 Writing "C:\WINDOWS\INF\wdma_via.inf" to "C:\WINDOWS\INF" is not an
approved method of installing INF files. Use a 'CopyINF' entry instead.

Hi

Start out with fixing the registry permission problem.

It looks like you have a permission problem on the registry key
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ivf

Try the method I describe in this link to reset permissions
http://groups.google.com/[email protected]
substituting ".AudioCD" with ".ivf".



And if you haven't done it already, see the "Access denied" section
here as well:
