It is hard to back to 3.1 when all features of 3.5 are in fingers and features
are in mind.

Wait... can this 'drive' fake out registry entries?

Dang. Does anyone know of a way to do this (fake registry entries)?

I assume what you're wanting to do is make POV think there's an entry there
when there's actually not, to get around some sort of administrative control
on the Registry.  Offhand, I'd say there's no such thing, because that would
sort of defeat the purpose of administrative control.

However... an administrator who allows you to install software but doesn't
allow you to modify the registry hasn't really thought it all through.  
There's nothing keeping you from creating a program that injects a small
DLL into POV's address space, then having that DLL redirect all calls to 
the appropriate registry functions to your fake versions.  Nothing like
this actually exists, that I know of, but there is sufficient documentation 
in various places for a talented Windows programmer to write it.

Well... generally the only way I can run stuff is off a CD- would that work
too?
