System Restore Service won't work

[phreedood]

I have just upgraded my AMD AthlonXP 2700/Asus A7N8X2.0
Deluxe systems hard drive to a Maxtor 80g Sata 150 from a
Maxtor ata 133. It was an oem product with no
instructions, so I downloaded Maxtors MAXIBLAST 3.0
software to format the new drive(NTFS format, 1 partition)
and copied the entire ata 133 drives info to the new Sata
150 drive.(Sata drive comes up as a scsi drive on the raid
bios...Silicon Image 3112 Sata Raid controller) I checked
the system restore function and got several
errors; "System Restore Service terminated with the
following error; The system cannot find the file
specified." netevent.dll I quered the SYSTEMS RESTORE
SERVICE through DOS and it stated that the specified
service does not exist as an installed service. I checked
for an sr.ini in the windows inf folder and didn't find
one. If Install the "sr" file from the Windows XP upgrade
disk, I can get the system restore to come up, but when I
try to reboot it, it is gone the next time. How can I fix
this?
