Windows 2000 Pro will not modify the system registry during installation. I get event ID 2001 and 560 (RASCTRS). What are the security setting that needs to be change to allow ActiveSync to modify the registry during installation?

Event ID 2001 for RAS appears then you try to install RAS over SP4. you have to upgrade SP. 560 was related to auditing system.
This is really strange. If you log in as Administrator you'll have full rights. You can use some monitoring software to track what keys are being created or modified and to see those keys permissions using regedt32. Maybe they was accidentally changed. I'm using regmon in such situations from www.sysinternals.com
