Error 1904.Module

[Guest]

I have received the following error and do not know how to correct it. Can
anyone help?
Error 1904.Module
c:\WINDOWS\System32\Macromed\Flash\Flash8b.ocx
failed to register.
HRESULT - 2147220473

Thanks

You register an OCX (activeX component) with the command

regsvr32 flash8b.ocx

You get a succeeded message, or not. Macromedia flash player is available
from http://macromedia.com. Dowloading it again may solve your 'register
server' problem with that file.

Deleted activeX and re-installed from suggested site. Still getting same
message. Also tried uninstalling program trying to run activeX and
reinstalling it. Same message.
Any other suggestions?

The failure to 'register' might be a Permissions issue with the registry
itself. When you highlight any Key in Regsvr32.exe, (say the CLSID key), and
open the regedt32 Edit menu, you see a "Permissions" button. Adding your user
to these permissions to all sub keys may allow you to register the OCX.

Can you expand on your instructions? I have never gone into the registry. Not
sure how to do this.
Thanks

I could not recommend going into the registry with no experience. You will
probably need to seek local help. You Flash player is failing for some reason
beyond itself. That app runs fine on a standard XP install.

I'm not convinced even a "repair' setup of XP would help with registry
problems like this.
