John,
Here's a bit of an update: I found and created a Bart's PE disk, but I
didn't see anything about a "Registry Plug-in" on his plug-in page. Is
this something that's included on the PE disk by default or how do I
add it so I can do whatever I need to do to disable the "auto-reboot on
error" command in the Registry?

John,
I ran the Bart's PE disc, but it froze on the Microsoft Windows XP
Professional screen--the screen with the Windows "flag" and animated
status bar...
FYI: Just after I started to burn the Bart's PE disc, I noticed a
warning about using an OEM [Dell] Windows Setup, which is the only XP
Setup CD I have that contains SP1 (the Bart's program wouldn't accept
the XP "Upgrade" Setup disc, which is what I originally used to install
XP Pro on the machine, since it does not contain SP1). However, the
problem machine is NOT a Dell and it's running XP Pro Service Pack 2
with all current updates. So I'm guessing that's why it froze...
If it's an option, I also have a non-OEM "Windows XP Upgrade" CD (which
is what I originally used to install a fresh XP Pro on the machine) and
I have both the Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 1a distribution files.
If the OEM XP Setup CD poses a problem for editing the Registry on a
non-Dell machine, is there a way to make a new Bart's PE disc with
these other discs???
After you get the PE disk up and running go to the broken registry's
Select key http://tinyurl.com/vsoc9 and look at the number recorded for
the "Default" value name. It's not necessarily, but almost always 1.
That value (number) determines which ControlSet00x will be loaded when
Windows boots in normal mode. If the number is 0x1 then edit the
ControlSet001 key, if the value is 2 then edit the ControlSet002 key.
So, assuming the Select key tells us that ControlSet001 will be loaded
then navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\CrashControl
and change the AutoReboot Value data to 0 (zero).
John
Note: If the AutoReboot behaviour continues after you make the registry
changes you probably don't have enough free space on the drive for the
creation of a memory dump file or the size of the pagefile is smaller
than the amount of memory installed. Further registry edits can be made
to change these parameters.
There's about 25 gigs of free space on the drive, so that shouldn't be
an issue....
This may be self-explanatory once I actually run the Bart's PE disc,
but how do I get to the Registry Editor on the disc? Any gotchas I
should know about?
You will have to consult the BartPE site for help with the creation of the PE disk. You may need to use a Windows CD slipstreamed SP2 to create the disk. The plugins go in the PE plugin folder, you could or should place (nest) it in its own folder inside the plugin folder.
