Tried F8? After your PC's logo screen, but before the Windows XP logo
screen, press F8. If it's a fast system you have to be quick, or sometimes
press the key more than once (but not enough times to get a keyboard error
message). You should then get a menu where you can select to boot into SAFE
MODE. Before the Safe Mode desktop loads, you'll be given an option click
the Yes button to continue loading the Desktop, or click the No button to go
directly to System Restore. Click No, and when System Restore loads select
the option to: Restore My Computer to an Earlier Time, then click the Next
button. In the left pane will be a calendar. The BOLD dates have Restore
Points. Click a bold date from the day before the problem started or as
close to that as you can. Then in the right pane you'll see the Restore
Point. If there's only one in that pane it will already be highlighted, and
you can just go on with the rest of the System Restore wizard. Hopefully,
when your system reboots after the System Restore, the problem will be gone.
(If there's more than one Restore Point for the date you've chosen, click on
one Restore Point to highlight it, and then proceed).

I was trying to uninstall a program using the Control
Panel's Add/Remove feature. I had to restart. Now, my
font in all my icons and operating data are gibberish.
What the hell hapened? I can't read them enough to know
what programs to get into. I tried F1 without help, and F8
without help. Any suggestions from the experts?
