Static virtual devices can open and retrieve values from the registry during real-mode initialization. During this time, the registry is read-only and only the keys and values under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key are accessible. Virtual devices call these functions by filling registers and calling the loader services function or by using one of these real-mode registry function macros:

LDR_RegEnumKey | |
LDR_RegEnumValue | |
LDR_RegOpenKey | |
LDR_RegQueryValue | |
LDR_RegQueryValueEx |
