system restore won't work

[im1too]

Nothing comes up when I go to system restore? When I went to my XP disk, computer said I had a newer version on my computer. WHAT? Is this because of updates? Thanks for any help.

Make a SP2 slipstreamed version of Windows XP
and afterward perform a "Repair Install" with the
new CD.

Either one of the following utilities makes slipstreaming
(integrating) SP2 into Windows XP a breeze:
