Neverwinter Nights Registry Entries

Does anyone have the registry entries for the original Neverwinter Nights plus both expansions?

I've got an install from a few OSes ago which works, but when trying to install the PRC pack it complains that I don't have Shadows of Undrentide installed and fails. I really can't be bothered to go through the hassle of re-installing and patching the game from five CDs.

Or do you actually need files? If that's the case you should have a file in one of your sub-folder that updates the registry information.

Thanks for the response, but I needed the actual files or their contents to make them myself. I ended up just reinstalling the damn thing in the end. The updater does re-add some of the registry entries, such as path, but the PRC pack still wouldn't run. What I think I was missing was the Bioware\NWN\Undrentide and Bioware\NWN\Underdark registry keys, which only contain a GUID each. Either that, or a DWORD, 'Install XPn Upgrade' with value 0 within the NWN\Neverwinter key.
