Error Message when opening Local Security Policy

[Guest]

Hello, Please can someone help!! Iam running windows xp pro on a standalone
machine, no network/domian and Iam getting the following message when i try
to open Local Security Policy:

"The Group Policy security settings that apply to this
machine could not be determined. The error returned when trying to receive
these settings from the local security policy database
(%windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb) was: The parameter is incorrect.
All local security settings will be displayed, but no indication will be
given as to whether or not a give security setting is defined by Group
Policy. Any local security settings modified through this user Interface may
subsequently be overwritten by domain -level policies."

Has anyone any idea what I can do to resolve?

Thanks in Advance
