Hi, use System Restore to restore the system to before when the issue
happened. Boot from your Vista installation CD to access the list of
recovery tools one of which'll be System Recovery. HTH

Thanks, system restore took care of the problem. A ms auto update seems to
have been the cause -- UGH!

Watch out for system recovery that aahfong seems to recommend...

It normally refers to restoring your disk to the way it left the factory.
You'd lose all your data and programs, inter alia.
