    Reading Registry on External Drive

    Hi Guys,

    I need to rifle through a hard drive's registry for a user's IP Address but need some advice on how to access a system registry on an external drive (the rest of the system is a gonner).

    Did a quick google and checked out some sites and consequently I'm not even sure this can be done.

    Any ideas?

    Many thanks,

    Karl.

    Cheers Splash.

    I got a freeware app called Registry workshop which allowed me, using a multiple tab editor, to match locations on my own PC with those on the dead system drive.

    I eventually found the setting I required in hkey_local_machine\system\ControlSet002\services\tcpip\parameters\interfaces\{D9726949-1C17-4320-8913-AC68C00ACDA4}

    Cheers for your help,

    Akira.
