Im running Win XP Pro and I imported a corrupted backup of the registry, and now my PC will not boot. It boots to the Welcome screen, then hangs there. Is it possible to repair the registry from the command prompt? Is it possible to load a backup copy of the registry from the command prompt?

Thanks for your help. It took a bit longer than expected, but it was well worth it. The PC is up and running minus a couple of tweeks that I will have to make. Thanks again for your help. :)
