Hi, I cant access my Device Manager - when I click on the Device Manager button on the system properties Hardware tab, the Device Manager screen comes up with this message .. !Action cancelled - Internet Explorer was unable to link to the Web page you requested. The page might be temporarily unavailable .etc..
Sometimes I also get a Microsoft Management Console screen up afterwards telling me it has encountered a problem.
I've cleaned up the registry & got rid of spyware but I'm still no further ahead! Anyone know what's happening! Your help is much appreciated. Liza

Thanks PJ. I had tried that previously without success (Plug and Play was already set to automatic)however I did give it another try, but with the same result. I should add that if I,m not online when I try to access Device Manager the internet connection dialogue box pops up. Poster rated this answer.
