Avast registry tool can export and import registry from crashed system as long as file system is still intact

Also, last time I checked UBCD for Windows can 'mount' a registry, and then you can run whatever tool you'd like. Used to use it all the time for virus/spyware fixes.

usually, if the XP systems i repair have trashed registry hives, i just use a bootable CD (Bart, UBCD.. anything with a copy / rename file command or tool) & use the last snapshot from the system volume restore (repository),, its like 4 files , sam, Security, system, software. just copy over to c:\windows\system32\config & rename accordingly, any questions just ask & i will explain a little better (only works if system volume restore has not been turned off)
