system restore

susie

this is a previous posting. my question is if you could
be more specific about the directory path i follow to get
to system restore.

the furthest i get is windows/start menu

i do not have exactly >> [Start > Programs > Accessories >
System Tools > System Restore] am i supposed to?

maybe it is not in c:\ or maybe it is not in c:\ windows -
i don't know where it is other than that, can you please
help

Reboot into SAFE MODE (F8).

Open XP's System Restore program and select a Restore
Point that
was created prior to your problem becoming known.

[Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System
Restore]

thank you Jupiter,
that would explain my lack of success. i was hoping that
i was reading instructions on how to restore when you
can't get a start menu. can you direct me to where i can
read something about that?

thanks again,
susie

Susie;
You are doing it wrong.
It is not a path on the hard drive.
Click the Start button
Click All Programs
Click Accessories
Click System Tools
Click System Restore.
