RE: Start Windows in Safe Mode then enable vgasave

oops, tryed in the wrong username last time...
Anyway, I did hook up my boot drive in another pc, but I'm not sure how to edit the registry when it's not the booted hard drive. When I ran autoruns on that hard drive it gave the configuration of the booted drive, so everything was already checked.
I don't know how to change the registry on a secondary drive (not the boot drive).
I don't know if I can get into the device manager either, or whether a registry change alone will fix it.

Plus I have 2 hard drives w/ raid that I boot with, so whatever the solution is, I may have to do it to both separately.
I think the regestry location is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave]
and
"Start"=dword:00000001

This may take a while and I don't want it clogging the thread. I'd do the usb OS change, but I don't know anyone with an XP disk. My dell didn't even come with one.
If you think you can help, email me at texastea006@yahoo.com.
