I have a hard disk image (.vmdk) taken from an old computer. The image contains a Windows 2000 installation.
Now I would like to update the registry on the image to make it bootable. (I'm suffering from this problem when booting the vmdk in VirtualBox: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314082/EN-US)
My question: Is there a tool that allows me to specify the registry changes (called "mergeide.reg") and the registry to be updated?
I.e., I want to run something like:
C:\>magictool mergeide.reg m:\WINNT\system32\config\system
where m: is the mounted VMDK image.
I didn't find anything useful on google. All available tools seem to allow updating only the registry of the running system.
Any help is appreciated.
regedit can load hives, perhaps that'll help? – Karan – 2013-04-18T23:06:42.650
