Remove millenium and upgrade to 2000 or xp. When Millenium was first coming out, advertising was maxed out. 2 days after it's release, nobody ever heard of Millenium again. This OS has too many bugs and inconsistencies.
For example: If powersave mode or hibernation is on, the pc will start slowing down and losing all performance until it locks up.
IMO, it is best to slave that drive, get your data files off and install a new OS...
Good luck.

While I agree that Me is a bad OS, there is hope.
What you can try is to re-install Me to the SAME folder on the hard drive.
You will need to re-install your applications, updates, and user settings.
Since the problem is that the registry is missing, you may have been hit by a virus.
It would be a good idea to mount the hard drive as a slave in another PC and scan the drive for viruses before attempting to re-install Me.
If there are no viruses on the drive, I would consider getting a new hard drive.
If the drive is loosing files, it may be starting to fail.
