i had just the opposite problem. i can't find any kind of a linux
driver for my USB drive. but i quickly figured out how to set this up
in windows without regedit. here's what you do.

1. open gpg.conf (located in your "application data" folder)

2. add the following lines (without quotes) after your
keyserver-options line:
"keyring x:\keys\pubring.gpg
secret-keyring x:\keys\secring.gpg
no-default-keyring"

x:\ is your USB drive and \keys\ is your keyring folder.

3. from your "application data" folder, copy "pubring.gpg" and
"secring.gpg" to x:\keys\.

that is all you have to do. and it won't mess up your registry if you
make a typo.
