I'm selling my Mom's computer and would like to know how to get rid of the area that says "registered to John Doe". I assume it's in the registry someplace. What should I replace it with?

c:\Documents and Settings\OWNER

or

c:\Documents and Settings\MOMS NAME

which do you have?

Under current version I have no "documents and settings". I have "drivers.desc" and "drivers32".
