restoring registry from memory

[john]

I accidently restored a complete hard drive from one
laptop on to another instead of just resoring my
documents. Now i can't access my Outlook, or any Office
2003 programs for that matter. I've heard you can Restore
a Registry from a backup memory without having to use
another type of media back up?? (ie. cd, i didn't back up
my registry onto any typoe of media?). Can anyone
confirm this or tell me how to restore my registry back to
it's original config before i did this?
