A thousand thanks for the tutorial, I have use PCREGEDIT several times and it is great. I am having a problem: I had a crash and have two corrupted reg entries in HKEY_USERS.DEFAULT. In PCRegedit I follow: System32configdefault. When I click OK it says it can’t read the data. However, when I use regedit in Windows 7 Ult. I can see it ok, but it gives me an error message when I try to delete it. Can someone tell me where I am going wrong? Thanks in advance!

On your motherboard BIOS try changing your SATA to IDE compatible mode and turn off native mode compatibility.

Ok I know I am a lame computer person and it might be some stupid mistake I’m making but I swear I followed every instruction to the the T several times and every time I try to use PC regedit it loads and says “Ok, booting the kernel” then comes to a different screen with errors that say:

!! Invalid loop location: /root.dat
!! Please export LOOP with a valid location, or reboot and pass a proper loop=…
!! kernel command line!

Any ideas what I am doing wrong? I know this is an old post but I have been at this for hours and I really need some help.

Thanks

Jac
