Hi Harrison,
I would like to confirm my understanding that you want to restore the
original hive in repair folder? Are you unable to boot in the normal mode
due to the corrupted system registry?
If this is the case, I have found the following article has described the
info, it also applies to the win2k system. Please refer to the article
carefully to see if you encounter the same error when you start win2k
machine:
To recover from a corrupted registry that prevents Windows XP from starting
How thttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;307545
The following article describes recovery console in win2k machine, and I
would like to extract the following info which may be your interests:
Select Fast Repair if you need to recover a newly installed system. Fast
Repair automatically performs all three Manual Repair options and verifies
crucial registry files (i.e., SAM, SECURITY, SYSTEM, and SOFTWARE). If a
hive is missing or corrupted, Fast Repair copies the version that resides
in the \%systemroot%\repair directory to the \%systemroot%\system32\config
directory. Of course, this process restores the original (as opposed to the
current) registry file, which returns the system to its original
configuration.
If you must use Fast Repair, you can then restore the current state from a
backup or use the RC to replace the generic versions of the registry hives
with current versions that reside in the \regback directory. The Microsoft
article "Differences Between Manual and Fast Repair in Windows 2000"
(http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q238/3/59.asp) details
each of these operations and provides additional repair-related references.
More info can be found from the article below:

If you have any update or questions, please feel free to let me know.
