Regopenkeyex

hello,
I have a big problem, every time I right click on something and select propertys I get an error message stating

RegOpenKeyEX: The Handle Is Invalid.

This really is pissing me off because I just reformated 2 days ago. I really dont feel like doing it again.

It sounds like something wrong in the registry. How can I fix this problem.

ty for all the help in advance..

Thanks for the post Jazz. You have helped me with a few problems already and I thank you again. Unfortunetly im not as smart as I thought I was and didnt back up my registry before fooling with it. So I payed the ultimate price and to reinstall AGAIN.
