[clnie]

I receive this computer and is there anyway that I can  take off  who it is reqister to in case I want to donate it. I t is about  1o years old.

So you only want to change the registered user name?
Just tell us what OS version and Service Pack it is.

[clnie]

service  pack 6 intel pentium v4.01 build  1381

[Quantos]

What version of NT?

[clnie]

4.0

[Quantos]

Let me look that up for you.

[Quantos]

Can you open your registry editor and find the following...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion

[clnie]

yes I am at the current version. I see the register to. can right click and delete and my question  we will still be able to use the computer after I delete.

[Quantos]

You should be able to just edit that to what you want.

Unlike most registry settings that one isn't tricky at all.

[clnie]

it worked  .Thanks for the help.I should leave the id  number in the registry alone. one more question.  when windows nt boots up you have  to  crt alt and delete to be able to log in to windows and then you have to put in user id and password to log. is there  anyway of getting   the computer to go  right in to windows.

[Quantos]

Not with NT 4.

[clnie]

thank you

[Quantos]

It's not a problem, and welcome to CH.
