Re: Registry editing in recovery console

Hi

You mention you cannot get your hands on a copy of Windows XP, pirated
software especially Microsoft software is not supported on these newsgroups

Hi,

I'm having this problem with a PC... The problem is, the PC logs off
whenever any user tries to log on. This has been happening ever since
someone inserted a VCD into the PC, which had some autorun application
written to it, just for the sake of preventing it from being copied.

My guess is, the application put some values in the system registry in one
of the following locations:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

or any other location which would enable the little thing to run. That is
why I have to check out the registry, but I'm unable to access it in any
way. The system logs off in all the start-up options including the safe
mode.

So the next logical option is the Recovery Console, and it doesn't allow
the
REG command.

Maybe one of you guys know the fix to this problem... Please tell me if
you
know. Is it possible to enable the REG command in the Recovery Console?

I don't want to reinstall windows each time this occur because I can't get
my hands on a genuine copy of Windows XP. The copy which I have turned out
to be a pirated copy... and for each installation I have to have a
license.

Please tell me.

Thanks in advance.

Shafiee.
