    Hi,

    Firstly, its my bad cause i changed some registry value at windows vista, afterwards, my windows vista goes dark with a cursor after logon. But luckily, i use bootcamp to boot mac os x. My question is: how do i change the windows registry through mac os x? (cause i still remember what i did, i might be able to change the value back to default).

    Thank you very much,

    Enrico

    I don't believe that would be possible. The solution to your problem would be the solution to all Windows problems, namely a format. Just trash your current bootcamped Windows partition and create a new one.

    Hopefully, you've got a good backup.

    You might see if you can boot in safe mode, then see if you can change the registry.
