SP2 still have errors

[Brian M]

I have tried to use everything I have found so far in this forum and on the
MS Knowledge base including:

Remove Spyware
Disable AV
Create new profile
Install in Safe mode
Edit permissions in Registry (the ones I could find)

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.

Try downloading the network version from here
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...be-3b8e-4f30-8245-9e368d3cdb5a&displaylang=en

Boot to Safe Mode and logon to your Administrator account.
Do a thorough disk cleanup, empty temp files, dump the recycle bin and
defrag
Disable your antivirus and third party disk management tools.
Run the download and see if that helps
