I can't really see how >_>

I assume safe mode didn't help, right?

Safe mode wouldn't come up...
All I get is a blinking cursor. No prompts, no menus, no safemode, no error message, nothing (cries for hours)

Also I tried to access the registry editor today. It gave me access to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SAM, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System. The registry editor lets you choose where the registry is relative to the system directory. I need to know how to access edit HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (or HKCR). This is where the keys I changed were. I need to know what to type in when it prompts for the directory. If I leave it blank it gives me access only to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Any ideas?

I looked at it again. It gives me this prompt:

Offline NT Password & Registry Editor Wrote:What is the path to the registry directory? (relative to windows disk)
[windows/system32/config] :

And then later on:

Offline NT Password &amp; Registry Editor Wrote:<≥=======<> chntpw Main Interactive Menu <≥=======<>
Loaded hives: <sam> <system> <security>
1 - Edit user data and passwords
2 - Syskey status & change
3 - RecoveryConsole settings
- - -
9 - Registry editor, now with full write support!
q - Quit (you will be asked if there is something to save)

Although I have UBCD 4.10 and 5.00 BETA. The beta has a registry editor that brings up SAM, Security, Software, and System. I think I need to go under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes to access HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. I think that is what this says - not sure (Link) Thoughts?
