Are you using Norton AV/Internet Security? Those products seem to affect
System Restore.

how far do you want to go back, this might seem irrelevant but if you try to
go back to far you will have trouble, i can sugget two things to you and the
first one is go back to the first restore date you can find and do it
piecemeal from there, or you could go into the best last known configuration
and to do this shut your computer down and restart when the computer is
restarting continually press the F8 button and it will give you this option

don't you ever bother reading responses before posting your own.

Although I appreciate being called a "real MVP," I don't appreciate your
implication that Rock is not a real MVP. Rock has provided lots of helpful
information to people here many times in the past, and is just as much a
real MVP as I am.
Individuals will often give a response similar or even identical to what
others have already said, for a variety of good reasons:
1. Not everyone uses the same news server, and messages are propagated to
different servers at different times. A message that's available on your
server may not be available on everyone's server, so some people may not yet
have seen the other messages with the same answer.
2. Messages are usually downloaded in batches. Even if the message is
available on someone's server, it may not have yet been downloaded to his
computer. Again, some people may not yet have seen the other messages with
the same answer.
3. Someone may answer a question with what seems to you like the same
answer, but was meant to make an additional point, give a somewhat different
stress to a particular point, or to explain a particular point in a better
way. (In this case Rock pointed to a particular page on Bert's site that I
didn't.)
4. Someone may answer a question with the same answer to lend weight to a
particular opinion.
5. Someone may, either through carelessness or haste, not realize that a
question has already been answered.
It hardly ever hurts to get the answer more than once, and often helps. If I
want to know something, and four people tell it to me, I'm a lot more likely
to believe it than if only one does.

makes a big difference when someone does it to satisfy a bloated head.

Lol, all you do is show your personal agenda. You really must have a
