Finding Microsoft KBs afterwards

This happens frequently enough to warrant comment. I hate when I find Microsoft Knowledge Base articles detailing the solution after I'd already stammered and stumbled into a solution on my own. Case in point, although this applies to Windows 2000 Server, there is a Microsoft Knowledge Base article called "How to perform a disaster recovery restoration of Active Directory on a computer with a different hardware configuration", KB263532 - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/263532, explaining what I blogged about. Maybe those missing registry keys were the source of my problems. I haven't found a more up to date KB article but have found a related one: "How to move a Windows installation to different hardware", KB249694, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/249694. I guess it's part of learning.
