N30M0D Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) Hello, i don't know if it's the right section. If it's not I apologize.I have a BartPE iso and i need to update nero but the old serial is not recognized and when nero starts ask me for it. So i need to put the new one. I know the serial is stored in i386/SYSTEM32/CONFIG/SOFTWARE but if I find it and replace it I get an error in virtualpc:STOP: c0000218 {Registry file failure}The registry cannot load the hive (file):systemroot/system32/config/SOFTWARE/or its log or alternate.It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.why should i have broken the checksum?I have only replaced the old code... all should work If is not possible to edit that file can i register it on-the-fly when nero.cmd is running?Thanks Edited May 10, 2007 by N30M0D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.Since a CD-ROM (and the .iso file is mounted as CD-ROM) is READ ONLY, I think that the reason is rather obvious. You need to re-build the .iso with pebuilder with a modified registration number in the Registry.Other options include hexediting the .iso file (tricky)Or extracting from the .iso the Registry Hive, modify it after having mounted it on running Registry, then unload it and write it back to the .iso, you will need a Comercial program like Ultraiso, Isobuster or similar ones to be able to edit the .iso, though. jaclaz Edited May 10, 2007 by jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N30M0D Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) thank you jaclaz but, as u can read above, i've done just that.... I've extracted the file, modified it and then edited the iso with ultraiso but i get that error when run the iso with virtualpc. I can't rebuild the iso, i need to change the serial in some way.

N30M0D Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) *Fixed*I've answered to myself... Needed to use an hexeditor, if edit the file with notepad the file get corrupted Edited May 10, 2007 by N30M0D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 You mean you tried editing a Registry hive in Notepad? jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kof94 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) You mean you tried editing a Registry hive in Notepad? woot.gifI have to agree that's gotta be painful .Incidentally, you probably broke the check sum because you saved your modified file with the wrong encoding. If you don't know what I'm talking about, when you go to 'Save As' you will see the drop-down box for encoding!
