Well, under NT 3.51 using RegEdt32 would have been enough.
Under NT 4.0, you have this nasty little thread that monitors any
changes to the particular keys in question.  If it notices you changed
one and the value of the other doesn't "match" the value of the other,
it'll put up a warning and change it back.

The little program basically raises it's priority so high that this
thread doesn't get a chance to run before the two keys get changed.

That's one of the ways to hack NTW 4.0 to NTS 4.0...
