[DUG]: OffTopic - Registry

[Paul Mckenzie]

G'day,   I e-mailed this 8:30 this morning and I haven't seen any sign of it, so I am assuming there is something wrong with the off-topic list...   Has anyone ever heard of the situation where parts (not all) the registry is returned to default values after every reboot ? It doesn't matter what type of user (Administrator or ordinary User) they, and the programs they install, can add keys and values - but when the reboot they all disappear ! The PC is a new Dell-W2K. The promise me not login scripts or anything like that are run for login.   Any ideas or help much appreciated.   Regards Paul McKenzie Analyst Programmer SMSS Ltd.
