IT's not a TSM issue, it's a Windows issue.
Microsoft does not support restoring a registry to a different machine.

That being said, they used to have a procedure in the knowledge base
that you can try.
Check there.

How you test BMR, depends on what you are trying to do.
You need different procedures for different possible disasters; 

Procedures needed to restore back to the same machine after a hard drive
failure, are simpler than the case where you are restoring to different
hardware at a hot site.

Is there still a requirement to restore a TSM client to the same server
hardware type. Can the restored
server be somewhat different.

How does everyone else test the TSM BMR procedures.
