Writing in registry
Hi,
we have 2 XP computers. On one of them we are able to install some software called Cumulus. During installtion it is writing to the registry. On the other computer the installation fails with an error 1904 saying it is not able to write in registry (some dll files) - I am logged in as administrator. :-( Any suggestions? BR Bente

They should be able to tell you what you need to do to install their program. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!" MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User

You can use Systernals' free Regmon to see what keys to which the program is trying to write and change the permissions accordingly. http://www.sysinternals.com/Processe...Utilities.html Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!"
