OK. That helps a lot. To answer your question I don't know or have ever
heard of a way to fix such via the registry. One thing to try is the tip
from JSI at the link below but there is no guarantee that it will work and
it might be best to copy a secedit.sdb from a non domain computer.

I assume you can not logon with a local account because you get an error
about not having the right to logon locally. If the problem is you don't
know the local administrator password there are free utilities to reset such
or you can rename the sam file in \winnt\system32\config from outside the
operating system which will cause a new sam to be generated at reboot with
only default users/groups and a blank password for the built in
administrator account.

Assuming the problem is that local users lack logon locally user right
[possibly it exists only for domain users?] you could try to use ntrights to
grant "users" logon locally if you can connect to the computer over the
network via the local built in administrator account. See the links below
about ntrights and FYI much of the syntax for ntrights is case sensitive.
You also could try using netdom to remove the computer from the domain and
see if that allows you to logon locally. --- Steve

ntrights here if you need it.
ntrights -m \\computer -u users +r SeInteractiveLogonRight [this command
may work using actual computer name while logged onto a network computer
with an account that has same logon/password as local administrator on
locked out computer]
