This is a discussion about Deleting from the Registry Woes. in the Windows Hardware category; Sorry, wasn't sure where to post this exactly, but its closest to Hardware I guess. . .

I'm trying to delete a a key in the registry from
LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Gameport
but it simply won't let me. Administrator, Safe Mode, doesn't matter what, I can't delete anything from that particular key. Is this protected somehow, can it be un-protected, and if it can't, why the freakin' hell not?
Thanks, any help is appreciated.
(also, is there anyway I could screw around with the win2k registry from win98, so I could possible work around whatever screwy protection it has that way maybe?)

Remove the device from the add/remove hardware wizard (you may need to choose "show hidden devices").
