Hi Mark,

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"

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)

Try reinstalling System Restore - have the CD in the drive, ensure in
Folder Options - View that you can see Hidden and System files, then
find
windows\inf\sr.inf
Right click it and take Install
