Guest Tom A. Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 This problem is driving me nuts! I have read several posts relating to HP printers and I have already concluded it is not the problem. I entered msconfig to check startup settings, made no change, hit ok, then I get "An access denied error was returned while attempting to change a service" I didn't change a service, nothing in eventlog?? Any help super appreciated.

Since you did not intend to change anything anyway and nothing has actually been changed, this is not in itself a major problem. However it may indicate that MSConfig is not working properly. -- Allan
Guest Andrew E. Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 RE: Access denied while saving msconfig? Actually anytime Msconfig gets opened w/o useing the "cancel" button to close the utility,youre setting policy as its written in the utility.Also,while Msconfig seems like the way to edit services,actually services.msc is the preferred method.
