Every time I try to use System Restore, my PC reboots and
when it comes back up I get a message to say the restore
failed. The same thing happens if I try other restore
points.

This has been known to happen. I find it best to occasionally turn off/turn
on my system restore to clear it out and make a manual restoration point.
Of course, I only do this when I know my PC has been working fine and was
recently cleaned of any spyware/adware/viruses/etc..

Turn off System Restore.
