Restore fails in XP Pro

C

CAPTAINSMILES

I can no longer use the restore function in XP Pro. I
have restore points and can create restore points, but
when I try to restore it goes through all the motions and
looks like it was successful, but when I logon it says
system couldn't restore and no changes were made.
Any ideas for fixes or places to find info about this
problem??
Thanks

Insert the Windows XP CD
Start>Run
Type the following command:-
"rundll32.exe advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection C:\Windows\Inf\sr.inf">Enter

System Restore core files should be reinstalled.

System restore can get corrupted. When that happens all you can do is
turn it off in the System Control panel, then turn it back on. All
previous restore points will be deleted.
