Access Denied errors
I am getting Access denied errors everytime I try to make changes or even stop a service in XP. I am using the Admin profile too. Even if I make changes to the system startup in msconfig, i get an access denied, some changes were not made.

If it is domain pc you will have to add your login to local admin group
you could also try that
cacls c:\windows /e /t /g administrator:F
/e is to 'edit' the acl, rather than replace it
/t states to apply the changes to all subfolders
/g what user
:F full access
Users group by default has access to HKCU (Current User) - to grant access to HKLM (Local Machine), they'll need to be local administrators, or you'll need to grant them access through the registry (right click the HKLM hive and choose permissions to grant access)

it is a pc on the domain but i have tried making changes as both users on the domain and the local machine admin account.
Havent had any rootkit infections lately, have ya? The recent onws strip permissions on the directories that some services reside in. Also, the hklm/system/ccs/services/s ervicename keys...check them both....
try this
start > run > cmd > type: gpresult /r
confirm what GPO has been applied on your PC. and check what they do

no other machine has this issue and there is only the default gpo
@noralain i think you meant /v there is no /r switch on gpresult in windows XP it starts with vista
/r (rsop summary data)
/v (verbose = detailed output)

/v (verbose = detailed output)

no,
It is no GPO. There is only the default GPO and it is not in effect.

no, What will that do?
that wil edit ntfs access lists for folder windows + give user administrator full access
Is this account part of a Domain or is it a local admin account?
Thanks,
