To restore the Registry
-----------------------1 Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down.
2 Click Restart The Computer In MS-DOS Mode, then click Yes.
3 Change to your Windows directory. For example, if your Windows directory is C:\Windows, you would type the following:
cd C:\Windows4 Type the following commands, pressing ENTER after each one. (Note that SYSTEM.DA0 and USER.DA0 contain the number zero.)
attrib -h -r -s system.dat
attrib -h -r -s system.da0
copy system.da0 system.dat
attrib -h -r -s user.dat
attrib -h -r -s user.da0
copy user.da0 user.dat5 Restart your computer.
Following this procedure will restore your registry to its state when you last successfully started your computer.
