Last Known Good Configuration problem

Hi there!
First of all today, I experienced a "C0000218 Registry File Failure" error after
upgrading my computer's RAM from 256mb to 512mb. The error would appear after the
Windows load screen and the system would reboot. It kept on doing this, and would
not get anywhere regardless of how many times I turned off my machine and turned
it back on. I tried safe mode, but got the same results.
Finally, I removed the 512mb and went back to 256mb and rebooted in "Last Known Good
Configuration" which the machine was successful in booting normally. However, when
I got to my desktop I noticed some shortcuts were missing, no wallpaper, an empty
My Documents folder, and I started up the internet only to find my favorites missing.
I was able to find my old documents in a backup folder the computer had created for
me, but my previous desktop settings, newer drivers, and internet favorites have
disappeared.
I am very frustrated to see this happen. Is there any way to get back these missing
items? Or has the "Last Known Good Configuration" screwed me over? I would appreciate
any help!
