In the System Restore Window, I click on "Undo Changes
with System Restore" The response I get is a window with
this legend at the top;" CiceroUIWndFramd: rstrui.exe -
Bad Image." the message in that window is as
follows: "The application or DLL C:\WINDOWS\System32
\HLINK.DLL is not a valid Windows impage. Please chech
this against your installation diskette. When I click
OK, I get an Error message as follows: A Runtime Error
has occurred. Do you wish to Debug? Line 21 Error: %1
is not a valid Win32 Application. When I click the YES
button, I get a window entitles: Just-In-Time Debugging.
the only possible Debugger is "New instance of Microsoft
Script Editor/ I select that debugger and get a
window "Step Into Remote Procedure Call" In the Process
sub window is listed [3748] C:WINSOWS\system32
\Restore\rstrui.exe. In the "Choose the program types
that you want to debug, there is only one
choice: "Script" When I click OK, I get a response%1 is
not a valid Win32 application.

How do I get my System Resore to work properly?

I would appreciate any help you could give me.

Thank you,

Hi Richard,

Perhaps the HLINK.DLL file has been corrupted. Boot to the Recovery Console
and extract the file from the WINXP install CD by keying in this command:

expand <CDROM drive letter>:\i386\HLINK.DL_ C:\Windows\System32
<ENTER>

For example, if your CDROM is drive E, the command would look like this:

expand E:\i386\HLINK.DL_ C:\Windows\System32
<ENTER>

If you're not familiar with the Recovery Console, a description of it,
including how to start and how to use it, can be found here:
