Logical Disk Manager, help please = ["Solved"]

Ok, 58 different locations. May not be all of them but lets try these first, if it doesnt work i will look for more.
Got all 58 locations on my XP box and exported them all out and combined them into 1 reg file.
You can right click on the reg file and choose edit to see what is in it if you like, you may want to do a registry backup first, but none of the locations in the reg file should hurt anything.
Simply run the reg file and have it apply itself to the registry and then reboot and let me know how it goes. :wink:

Hi Shane,
First, a system restore point was performed.
Then I applied your reg file.
Then reboot.
I am very happy to report ... Success! You are a genius!
I will now also change this "Subject Line", as the problem has been "Solved", much thanks to you!
Just curious, is there anyway to know or compare the reg file to see what exactly was changed or missing that caused the original problem?
Thank you again!

You can look at the reg file to see what it changed, but towards what was missing or different that it fixed would be hard to tell. you would have to restore the registry from before the repair and then go check each location, all 58 of them one by one and compare.
I looked at the inf file and pulled all the registry locations it was suppose to set, and there where 4 more that it didnt. The thing about the inf file is I dont think it overwrites the registry keys if they are there, so thats why i dont think it fixed you up.
So instead I pulled each location manually and looks like that did the trick :-)

Hi, Excellent piece of analysing and solving the registry in this post. I did go through this post and fixing registry is a masterly one.
