Live CD for Virus Removal/Registry edits etc

[CraiGDaniel]

I think your confused a little bit and now I'm confused. You won't be booting off your customer's hard drive in your tech pc. Your connecting it to your tech pc as second hard drive. It will just show up as another drive letter in your tech pc os. In windows you can throw anything at it that you need to do to it. A livecd is good for the same but you need to know how to use linux if that is what you plan on using. Most tech tools are made to run in windows. So that is why I boot my tech bench pc into windows, connect the drive if its usb (if connecting native then you need to connect it before you turn on your computer), then I scan the drive with my tech tools and manually do what I need to do to the drive. You can use a livecd but its best used from the computer you are working on. Hope this explains more about what we are trying to tell you. TTYL.

Yeh confused myself i think, long day lol. Ty for the clearup, a live cd isn't what i thought it was hence the confusion!

Is it possibly to edit the registy of the slaved drive? If so what is the simplest, quickest way?

Simplest (for me) use D7 > Offline tab > Edit Offline Registry

If you don't use D7, then Regedit > Load Hive > browse to registry location and select a hive > type a name > edit whatever
