System has reached the maximum size allowed for the system part of the registry
- by Bob Denny
To be precise
System has reached the maximum size
allowed for the system part of the
registry. Additional storage requests
will be ignored.
WinXP/64 running fine for 2 years (no /3Gb switch), just started happening. I used ntregopt and the problem went away at least temporarily. However, looking before and after in Windows\System32\Config I see that my System file was reduced only by 10% and is still 170+ Mb. According to my rather extensive research with Google, this is "huge" and should be more like 10-20Mb. The system runs fine. There is a System.bak that is only 11Mb and has the date when I ran ntregopt.
That's what I know. Now my question: Is there anything I can do to reduce or rebuild the System registry hive given the above info?
