Start, Run, then type regedit, or do a find...

If it is W98 hold down the control key while booting, otherwise F5 or F8 at the right time (when Window's starts to load), I never can remember which.

I like the control key method because you can start pressing it right away, the other keys have to be hit at just the right time.
