Hello XP world:
Since recently when I try to go to the Administrative Tools,  after clicking 
Computer Management I get a message saying "Windows cannot open file 
compmgmt.msc because it doesn't know what program created it.
I'm running XP Home with SP1 and SP2 installed  a few days ago, but I have 
no idea if this a problem since SP2 or not.
JUst don't know what to do.
Thanks for any help
