Missing component palette under nt

Question: No errors during installation, but when I run Delphi there are no components on the component palette! Why? Answer: Most likely you are using NT and need to use the "Registry Keys Only" installation choice as the currently logged in user to get all the necessary DLL's and registry key entries to run Delphi 4 under this user profile. Most likely Delphi 4 was installed by an administrator or a user with administrator rights and you are logged in as another user and trying to use Delphi 4. Delphi fails to load properly because it cannot locate registry keys essential for running.
