System Restore

[John Boy]

Hi

I can't get system restore to work. I have tried several recent (within last
month) restore points but after re-booting the message 'computer cannot be
restored from requested point' comes up and even when choosing a different
restore point the same happens. any suggestions?

Hi John,

The majority of the time this is caused by a corrupt restore point.
Turning System Restore off then on again will purges all existing
restore points, and creates one new one.

There are also other possibilities that can cause this to happen. The
following page has some troubleshooting steps to take.
