Registered to..!

[Shane Nation]

I have been daft and when I set up my laptop only typed in my 1st name, is
there anyway to change the name of the person the computer is registered
too. I want to add my last name to macth the set up on my desktop P?.
I am using Windows XP home.

Thanks

However, to fix the "Registered to" information for WinNT/2K/XP,
you can use Start > Run > Regedit.exe to edit:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\RegisteredOwner

and:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current
Version\RegisteredOrganization
