Registry Recovery "Ed" <nospam[ at ]wanted.invalid> 6/5/2007 8:10:09 PM Hi, I have a Dell Dimension 2400 with XP home with the latest updates on from Microsoft. On two separate occasions lately while logging into my administrator's account, I've received a dialogue box entitled: "Windows - Registry Recovery" And the text of the box says "One of the files containing the system's Registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternate copy. The recovery was successful" The computer is fine, and everything is working but this still concerns me, and I would like to know if there are any ways that I can explore to determine exactly what is going on here. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
