The tip works just as well in Windows Server 2003 and 2008 as it did for Windows NT. Even so, it's a little kludgy.
What other ways can you think of to track changes that occur in the Windows registry when you add hardware, software or make other configuration changes?

You can also log changes.

Thanks for the tip. I wasn't aware of that utility, but I should have figured that the Sysinternals folks would have a solution that would work.
