static/dynamic file analysis of executable in windows

["Ryan Buena" <dreamsbig () gmail com>]

I need to analyze exactly what an .exe file is doing to a windows OS
when run. Whether it be a snapshot compare utility or something else.
I was looking at Sysinternals Filemon but it doesnt give me registry
changes, dll changes and such. Can anyone point me in the right
direction or linke me to good articles on this kind of file analysis?
Thanks in advance.
