Computer Registration

's Computer Specifications

I just recently bought a computer from a family member. I
just wanted to know if I can change who the computer is
registered to. I want it to be registered under me for
updates and everything else, but I just dont know how. If
someone could help me, I would REALLY apprechiate it.
Thanks

Personally I would just leave it alone. It really doesnt make a difference. But if it really bothers you try the following:

Click Start | Run and type REGEDIT

Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | Software | Microsoft | Windows NT | CurrentVersion

Right-click on RegisteredOwner and select Modify

Change the Value data: to your the new owner name

Right-click on RegisteredOrganization and select Modify

Change the Value data: to the new organization name

Done......Enjoy!!!
