I used a program to detect registry problems and I noticed there were 900+
problems found. I was wondering what program do you recommend to fix these
problems with the registry or what should I do.

Let's think about this logically. You have either one of three problems:

1. You have used a Registry Checker that is attempting sell
you a cleaning program, or

2. You have used a Registry Checker that is just bad, or

3. Your system is so screwed up, the fix is to start over by reinstalling
XP and all your software.

Hopefully it isn't the last item, because if that's true, you have someone
using your system that's totally incompetent, and in a short period of time,
the problem will return.
