Somebody dropped a laptop with NT into my lap and the error message is

The Control Registry Key denied access to SYSTEM account programs so the Service Control Manager took ownership of the Registry key.

Suffice it to say that the laptop is not feeling well and we cannot get the modem to work. All MS support docs say: "This information is restricted" no matter what search I do.

Before I wipe it out, has anyone seen this?
