Can I retrieve reg. keys from a Ghost image ?

One of the things I forgot to do, after Norton Ghosting a C:\ drive, (and
before I zero-filled the whole hd), was export IE6 "Trusted sites" registry
keys.

Is there a way, (without wrecking a gorgeous new c:\ drive / Windows XP Home
ed. installation), to get those keys out of the Ghost image, so they can be
merged into the new registry ?

....and preferably a way other than changing hard-disks around, e.g
restoring the image, exporting the keys / say ...burn them to cd-r , ...and
then merging them into the new "gorgeous" Windows ? :-)

Not easy - Whenever I'm faced with that, I create a Virtual PC
machine and load the ghost image. Then I can export Registry
keys/values and network over to a share for inclusion to the host
PC. Remote Registry access might also be a possible solution.
 
....the mind BOGGLES ! ...but, Thanks anyway !!! :-)

....I think I'll plug in a spare hard disk | restore image {..only takes a
few minutes} | export keys | burn to cd-r | and then put the "gorgeous"
Window XP hd back where it was :-)
