Default Changing Registered to name

I've looked everywhere for a place to change the "registered to" name when
you first install XP and can't find it.

Anybody know?

Thanks,

Dennis

Hi Hughes

Open Regedit Go to Hkey_Local_ Machain\Software\Microsoft
\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\
RegisteredOwner and RegisteredOrgainzation keys can be changed to what
you need.

Badger,
