I had a problem, like many I have seen here with IE7. I am at the point of
system restore. I restored back 3 days and the restore has been running for
over an hour. It still says it is restoring the registry. Should it take
this long? It said I should not turn off the PC until system restore is
completed, but I am wondering if it will ever complete?
 
Hi, did you get anyhwere with this? I have exactly the same issue trying to
back out a print driver install that seems to have caused the print spooler
to keep shutting down.
 
If it hangs for hours, you need to be careful about how you restart. Power
down, and when you start up, after the bios screen, during the 'black
screen', BEFORE the windows logo 'crawler' appears, you press F8 rapidly,
many times to get the Safe Mode options screen. Chose "Last known good
configuration'
If you see the crawler, power down fast, and try F8 again. It's sometimes
hard to make happen.
