Anyone know of anyway to repair or replace a Registry that
is on a diff drive than the one PC is booting from?

Had to install a new drive cause a Registry corruption
during Import is now giving STOP messages when I try to
boot from the OEM drive.

Thanks in advance!

If I understand your question correctly.

If the "bad" drive in in the machine and accessible then,

regedt32 can "load hive" from the old installation...

Hive files on disk (old installation) may be copied. Such as
replacing a hive file in <old>%systemroot%\system32\config\ with one
from <old>%systemroot%\repair\RegBack\ (assuming you have made a recent
registry backup on the "old" system).
