Can I edit the registry when using a boot floppy to boot? David

 
Should be able to. Change to c:
copy c:\windows\regedit.exe regedit.com
start regedit.com

What are you getting for errors?
 
If you boot from a windows boot disk you can import/export registry files and you can even delete specific keys.
How about something like this to edit? Export the registry with to a file with registry /e Then use dos's edit to edit the registry and then import as needed.


Type regedit /? at command prompt for options.


HTH.
