Hi all, the problem was, that i tried installed the "Microsoft Smart Card Base Components" on my win2k-system, although it is already part of the windows 2000 system. the setup-file is actually for win9x/ME/NT. if you run the setup-file on win2000 or winXP your smart card components won't work any more. i know! first read, then click! ;-)
okay, the way i fixed the problem: for all german users, i found a description to rebuild the old status: http://support.cherry.de/german/new_faqkb.asp?faqkbid=311 for all non-german, i try to translate it to english: That's the way to disable MS Smart Card Base Components and rebuild the original functions of the OS: For Windows 2000: 1) Login as Administrator 2) Run the following in START - RUN Regsvr32 %windir%\system32\scardssp.dll [RETURN] Scardsvr reinstall [RETURN] 3) Go to entry "SmartCard" in SERVICES and try to start it. 4) Change to 'Automatic' start for this service 5) Restart your computer. L�sung f�r Windows XP: 1) Login as Administrator 2) Run the following in START - RUN Regsvr32 %windir%\system32\scardssp.dll [RETURN] Scardsvr reinstall [RETURN] 3) Create a .reg file with the following content (attend to correct notation) NOTE: This is a guidance for a german installation of winXP. I'm NOT sure if it is the same on other winXP-installations. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SCardSvr] "ObjectName"="NT AUTHORITY\\LocalService" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SCardDrv] "ObjectName"="NT AUTHORITY\\LocalService" 4) Save the file and run it. This will update the windows registry 5) Go to entry "SmartCard" in SERVICES and try to start it. 6) Change to 'Automatic' start for this service 7) Restart your computer. --- > Visit the OpenCard web site at http://www.opencard.org/ for more > information on OpenCard---binaries, source code, documents. > This list is being archived at http://www.opencard.org/archive/opencard/ !
