You've got one built in - go to START, RUN type in "regedit" and hit return. Go to where you need to change entries and amend them as instructed. The EDIT/FIND is very useful here.

BE WARNED!
Make a backup first, (FILE - EXPORT) as if you make a pigs ear of it all, you COULD be unable to restart your PC! You'll need to remember where you saved the backup to SHOULD you require to ever use it!

how can i back up??? what things should i do and have to be done???

by ian boothby

START-RUN-type regedit -RETURN, then FILE - EXPORT and send the backup to MY DOCUMENTS (for example). You can recover it from that place, should the worst happen. You can then tweak the registry setiitng as per your "BOOSTER" program advises.
