if you have access to a win98 PC you could get scanreg.exe (scanreg /opt /fix) or reboot to dos and type regedit /? for restore options. or you could try using regedit to export the registry and then re-import it (vvveeerrryyyy long shot) alternativly I have fixed this problem by reinstalling windows over the top of an instalation (on 98) this recreates the registery but keeps all you settings..
