Re: ADAM Installation errors

Hi Lee,

I had set the registry entry before the installation. My event viewer only
shows information messages related starting stopping and online
defragmentation. The only warning is related to auditing which isn't
available on XP anyway.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

Peter
