from scratch. Can anyony please tell me how I can do this?

First, make sure you can see all hidden files (Folder Options>View).

Repair System Restore - The command-line parameter is case sensitive:

1. Insert the Windows XP CD
2. Click [Start] [Run]
3. Type the following command and press Enter "rundll32.exe
advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection C:\Windows\Inf\sr.inf" [Case Sensitive]

System Restore core files should be reinstalled. Alternately, you may
also open Windows Explorer, navigate to "C:\Windows\Inf" folder and
right-click sr.inf (choose Install) (sr.inf shows up as sr in windows
explorer).

What does "... is not working properly" mean? In most cases, all you need
to do is turn off system restore, then turn it back on again. No reinstall
is necessary.
