Running XP Pro with service pack 2, and all MS updates are installed.
My MS System Restore stopped allowing me to set a restore point a week
ago just after I installed a second hard drive and changed that new
drive to be my boot and OS system drive after dividing it into two
partitions. The old drive is now installed in the "slave" position. I
have used System Properties window to ensure that the box is not
checked that turns off the System Restore to "all drives"; one clue
to solving this problem is that the old hard drive (F) is identified as
the System Drive when in fact it is in the "Slave" position. The new
hard drive (C) shows up as the System drive when looking at the
Computer Management, Storage, Disk Management window.
Have also verified that System Restore services are running by using
the command prompt, Start, Run, type CMD in the control box, Enter,
then type Net Start at the command prompt; it says that System Restore
has started. And while it is running it does not allow me to set a
restore point.
Any suggestions on how to get my MS System Restore to work again?
Thanks, JC
