Can't install any device driver after joining 2003 Domain

[Guest Zegra1]

I have a windows 2003 domain with 1 server and 20 XP clients...every thing

goes fine on the XP clients (e.g. installing printers and device drivers, USB

Flash RAM) until I join them to the domain..

 

After joining the domain I can't install any device driver (e.g. USB

keyboard, USB mouse, Flash USB, or Printer driver) even when i log in as

Enterprise admin..i either get (data invalid error) or the installation just

stops saying (can't install)

 

Can anyone help with this, what policy causes that and how do i fix this??

 

Thanks

Make sure the domain admin is a member of the local administrators group.
