Open regedit:
Start | Run | type: regedit <enter>

Then export all branches to a file on your hard drive.

Here is a step by step, hope this helps:
First bring up REGEDIT, look in Windows file or I believe you can just type REGEDIT in your run box and hit OK.
Under Registry at the top of the box, click on that, now click on Export Registry File, a box will come up asking where you want to export it to, just put it in your C drive, then name it at the bottem of box, Registry.
Click on save.
Now if you ever get in trouble or want the old regestry back, bring REGEDIT back up and click on Registry and click on import registry file, go to your C drive and click on registry and click open, reboot and your good to go.
