system restore crashes

[Paul Pedersen]

I upgraded to a larger hard disk, using WD's file copier to clone the old
disk to the new one. Everything seems to work, except for this.

In My Computer/Properties, if I click on the System Restore tab, System
Properties crashes. rundll32.exe freezes up and cannot be killed. I have to
restart the computer.

Did a dll get corrupted? Which one? How can I fix this?

Win XP Pro.

what you need to do
is to utilize a windows
setup cd and perform
a "repair installation"
to resynchronize the
system files to your
new hardware.

the repair will also
delete the old and
outdated restore points
and create a brand new
restore point that is
accurate to your new
configuration.

That did the trick. Thanks!

How in the world does anyone know about that kind of stuff? It would have
taken me forever to find that on my own.

Thanks for your response. I fixed it by reinstalling only System Restore.
