Comparing two registries on the same machine?

Hello - I'm new to AdminStudio but not new to Winstall, so here goes. I would like to take a snapshot of my registry, make some changes, take another snapshot and compare the two to find out what changes took place for a larger desktop rollout.

It appeared to me I would run the OS Snapshot Wizard, only select the registry, run it, then make the changes, do another Snapshot, then import them into the Conflict Manager (Application Manager) and run the Conflict Wizard to see the difference. But I don't think it's working the way I want it to - the only conflicts I get are 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT' but no other reg changes - even ones that are pretty obvious - like changing the default web page - I know where that reg change is, but it doesn't show up.

Thanks for any help, and reminding you I'm new to the software, so any help is appreciated.

Run the isrepackager.exe in Snapshot Multiple steps Mode
take the initial snapshot
make your changes
rerun the repackager
take a comparison snapshot
filter the junk by eye
