This is because the file is probably in use, make a backup of sysdm.cpl, call it sysdm_original.cpl or something. Resource hack sysdm.cpl and save it as sysdm_new.cpl

Boot into safe mode and open up command prompt, and type:
Copy C:WindowsSystem32sysdm_new.cpl C:WindowsSystem32sysdm.cpl
Then press Y when prompted. Reboot back to normal mode.
