[XP Pro] Boot.ini Help!

Here's my current boot.ini configuration:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional"
/forceresetreg /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn /bootlog

What the heck is "/forceresetreg"? I Googled it and got absolutely nothing.

forceresetreg= Force Reset Reg.
Do a search on your PC for *.reg and see what comes up. It seems the maker of the system has something installed to force a reset of the registry at boot. You could also recreate the boot.ini file removing the force reset reg entry and rename the original one to boot.old then reboot and see if the system starts up ok.

Its a Toshiba laptop, A45-S150 that came with XP Home, upgraded to XP Pro. I'll check on the *.reg search.
