Reading registry on secondary drive?

Hi everyone,

I took the hard drive from my father's old computer and put it in his new
machine (as the D: drive) just in case we needed some old files. Turns out,
we need to read a few registry settings on it to get his Outlook Express
mail settings. Is there a way to run regedit, or something similar, that
will let me see the keys and values on the D: drive's copy of the registry?
The drive itself is in FAT format. Thanks!
