Administrator Disabled Display Control Panel?

When I attempt to go to the display control panel, I get the message that I typed into the subject line. However, I *am* the administrator of my computer, and I don't remember disabling any control panel stuff. Is there a way for me to enable it? Thank you.

I would first do a full system virus scan. Then, I would check this registry entry to see if "NoDispCpl" had been added.

"Deny Access to the Display Settings"
