What are you trying to cure?

Well, here is how to recover an older Registry...
http://support.microsoft.com/default...87&Product=w98
Description of the Windows Registry Checker Tool (Scanreg.exe)
(183887) - When you start your computer successfully, the Windows
Registry Checker tool (Scanreg.exe) creates a backup of system files and
registry configuration information (including user account information,
protocol bindings, software program settings, and...

Boot to DOS (hold Ctrl as you boot for the Startup Menu, & select
"Command Prompt Only"), and Enter

SCANREG /Restore

It will offer five, one for each of the last five separate days you
booted successfully. Start with the one of the day the problem began, as
these backups of the entire Registry (& System.ini & Win.ini) are done
at boot, not at shut down.

CAVEAT: A /Restore restores settings only. If there was a file change
(other than to System.ini & Win.ini), those cannot be undone this way.
That could be a problem, especially if there was a hardware change or
large un/in-stall since the backup was made.

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,
should things get worse after this,

What error are you getting? What are you trying to do, and why, using what files?
If you are trying to restore a previous Registry, that is done using scanreg
/restore, from a DOS boot, not from Windows or Safe Mode. If you are trying to
import an entire copy of the Registry that you exported, that is a very bad idea.
