How can I restore lost registry keys if I reloaded Windows in the same directory as before?

Question

I was having a problem with my computer and stupidly re-installed Windows 2k Pro in the same directory. Now I can't access software that can't be reloaded under the new env.

Thanks... I think I already know the answer and it ain't gonna be pretty!

Answer 1

All the installed programs are gone for good...Because you have overwritten those. Reinstalling everything all over again is the only answer.
