Of course, you??™ll want to be sure that you format the environment
variables correctly to ensure they aren??™t drive letter or hardware specific.
84 CHAPTER 4 ESSENTIAL REGISTRY HACKS
Modifying the Hardware Setup
Many of the settings you need to change to control the hardware on your system appear as part of
the console or software settings. For example, if you want to control the appearance of the text on
your display, you actually need to change the console settings and not the hardware settings. Likewise,
if you want to change how the system handles languages, then you need to change the international
settings instead of the keyboard settings. With this in mind, you??™ll want to check the ???Performing
Console Configuration??? and ???Modifying the Software Setup??? sections of the chapter as needed
when you don??™t see what you want in this section.
The hardware settings fall into two categories. First, vendors provide specific settings for their
hardware. Because there are so many hardware vendors on the market, it??™s impossible to provide
a comprehensive list of vendor-specific settings, so you won??™t find them in this chapter.
