Steph,

To change the registered owner of Windows95/98, do the following:

1) Click Start, Run
2) Type regedit, click OK
3) Click the + sign next to the following: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows
4) Click CurrentVersion
5) Double-click Registered Owner in the right window
6) Type in the new name and click OK

Follow the same procedure for REGISTERED ORGANISATION.
