How do you increase the size of the registry. I hae a laptop that have been reformated, and when try to load windows 2000 it says "insufficient system resources, increase the registry size".

On a windows 2000 station,

1.) right click on my computer
2.) choose properties
3.) click advanced
4.) click performance options
5.) click change
6.) you will see a box at the bottom of the screen for registry size. I recommend a 64 MB registry size, although that changed with everyone you talk to.

Thanks,
Sam Thomas

If you haven't loaded windows on a formatted drive it shouldn't have a registery yet.

Make sure that you have removed all traces of the old os before you try to load 2000.
