You'll find them in;
%systemroot%\system32\config
the current_user hive is in;
\Documents and Settings\%userprofile%
ntuser.dat
The last reg backup files in;
%systemroot%\repair\RegBack
and the original as-installed files in;
%systemroot%\repair

Thanks for the help.
I have Disc C and Disc I (formally disc C). I re-installed windows on disc
C and want to look at the registry on Disc I.
How do I do that?
thanks,
Rob

Run regedt32, then from the Local Machine Hive, choose Registry|Load Hive.
Then navigate to the location of the hive you want to edit/read. Give it
some tempname (doesn't matter what). Then when your done, move the cursor
back to tempname, then Registry|Unload Hive, Registry|Exit
Generally the system hive for hardware and or service related entries;
software hive for application and other operating system entries.
