I recently built a computer for my girlfriend. After setting up Windows XP I noticed I had mispelled her name in the "Registered to:" field. How do I go about correcting this issue before I'm put in the dog house?

Run Regedit and navigate to:

HKey-LM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion

There you will find RegisteredOwner - double click on the key nam (RegisteredOwner) and change the text.
