If I back up the system state on a Windows 2000 domain controller, then
re-image it with a member server image then restore the system state back up
will that restore the DC back?
 
Nope... You'd have a different SID and all assigned to the computer. What
you need to so is a restore of the OS with the system restore disk.
 
Thank you very much for your reply Ryan.

Doesn't restoring the registry restore the sid?

Isn't the registry backed up with the System State?
