In Vista you can boot to the DVD, then choose to "repair your computer". In the resulting menu choose "Command prompt". From there you can run a variety of windows programs, one of which is the Regedit.exe where you can restore saved registries. You will get the same graphical interface you get inside windows. So use Regedit within windows Vista (Just click the Start button, then type "regedit" in the search line just above the Start button) (The Start button is now refered to as the "Pearl", by the way), to backup your registry as often as you want. Then use Regedit in the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) on the boot of the DVD to restore that backed up copy.
