Demetri,
I know that this doesn't answer your question, but addresses the question
of having a good registry to revert to.

The problem that I got into was that I tried to start windows several times
so all the backup copies of the registry were also corrupted before I
realized that the registry was the problem.

Now I use and highly recommend Emergency Recovery System 9x (ERS9x).  After
having been burned several times with a un-recoverable corrupted registry I
tried it (shareware) and now use it on all my machines.  It's advantage is
that it makes one copy a day of your registry and can be used to make a
copy before installing any hardware/software that you fear may have bad
effects on your registry.  Recovery is simple and is performed from a DOS
prompt so you don't even have to be able to get into windows to
recover.  There are several other options and backups that it can perform
but the registry backup is its strong suit.

You can find it and some description at:
