CONTROLSET\SELECT SUBKEY
------------------------

The Select subkey under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM maintains information
about the control sets for the currently selected computer. The Select
subkey contains four named values:

Current   REG_DWORD   0xN, where N identifies a control set:

Identifies the control set from which the CurrentControlSet subkey is
derived. If this value is 0x1, for example, the subkey producing the
CurrentControlSet is ControlSet001.

Default   REG_DWORD   0xN, where N identifies a control set:

Identifies the default control set. If this value is 0x1, for example, the
default control set is ControlSet001.

Failed   REG_DWORD   0xN, where N identifies a control set:

Identifies the control set number of the control set that was last
rejected
and replaced with a LastKnownGood control set.

LastKnownGood   REG_DWORD   0xN, where N identifies a control set:

Identifies the last control set that successfully started the system. If
this value is 0x1, for example, the last control set known to be good is
ControlSet001.
