I'm sure I've seen something somewhere about a part of the registry
which is stored on the storage card, and so will survive hard resets,
just like the "\Storage Card" part of the file system. I can't find it
now though - can anyone shed any light on this?
 
Not on a storage card, no. There is the option in CE (not PPC that I'm
aware of) that you can use a Hive-based registry and save the .hv files to a
persistent store, which will give the effect you're after.

Okay, thanks very much. Seems a wasted opportunity... I'm sure we'll
work round it somehow.

Maybe you're thinking of RegSaveKey and RegRestoreFile?

No, but they'll quite possibly be useful, thanks very much :)
