"LDM Is Not Registered"
Fred, Your article "Another Hidden Gem: The Windows Disk Management Tool " ( http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=180207718 ) was very interesting and prompted met to attempt to play around with the Disk Manager.
Unfortunately I cannot access the Disk Manager and get the following error message:
"Logical Disk Manager (LDM) is not registered.
LDM supports Windows 2000 or later.
Check the operating system version on the computer named ..."
As I am using Windows XP professional with all the service packs and critical updates that are current, this error message is a mystery, particularly since I have previously been able to use the Disk Manager.
Can you assist me in tracing and correcting this problem please. ---Barend J Venter

The Microsoft site has a bit more, including some version-specific info, and
a discussion of certain instances that can trigger that message:

This site has a more detailed discussion, although it's definitely from the geeky end of the pool: http://tinyurl.com/oghmh
If none of those fixes work, I'd take this failure as an early warning sign that something deep in your OS is hosed. I'd further suggest you restore a known-good image or full backup; or even consider a reinstall.
