- XP Registry.

Can someone please remind me of the names of and where Windows XP stores its
registry files?
Im currently trying to run down an obscure problem where the registry is
being altered whenever the PC is booted, rebooted or awakened.

Primary Hives are at \Windows\System32\Config, and the Profile
specific data is located in each \Documents & Settings\User folder
as NTUser.Dat

Registry Hive file locations are stored here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\hivelist]
To find changes use Regshot, an open-source(GPL) registry compare utility that allows you to quickly take a snapshot of your registry and then compare it with a second one - done after doing system changes or installing a new software product.
