Error 1406

Am trying to install Sync software for my new SE K700i phone and am getting the following
message during the installation
Error 1406.Could not write value Sync Station to key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Sony Erricson\PC Connectivity Suite\Installed applications.
Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
I am running WinXP Pro and logged in as Admin. It seems every reference i find suggests
that this error was fixed with xp?? When checking regedit the reg path listed above
does not exist.
Any clues would be much appreciated
Cheers
Moose

try walking through this, you might be able to track down an answer there, or at
least ask someone who might know something, ive noticed a post on another site by
you that still hasn't produced an answer, this link is just for that model, good
luck

Okay, I cracked the coded. After spending about 4 hours just trying to install the
drivers for my usb bluetooth device, I started trying everything.
It kept giving me the 1406 message saying that I wasn't authorized to modify the
KEY blah blah blah. So I decide to make a new user on the computer, named "Admin"
and gave it administrative level just like my other account had. Then I logged on
to the Admin account and installed the software without a stitch. Then I switched
back to my account and deleted Admin. The software still works fine. (Of course
you shouldn't do a single user install)
ALSO, renaming your account to "Admin" will not work. You have to actually make
a new one so that your kernel dirs will be named Admin.
