Hi Jon,
Here are my settings (also attached as SR 3day.xml). I think I have set
it
to make RPs at 3 day; or ASAP after the trigger (in case I have gone to
bed
early).

Not that it answers my question :-}. Incidentally, it seems as though
setting Backup & Restore ALSO triggers a RP at the same time although I
have
not tested any restorations. Here is a simple test (courtesy of Mike M
over
on windowsme.general).
1 put any shortcut on the desktop.
2 create or wait until next SR point.
3 Delete the shortcut made in 1.
4 Restore to SR made in 2.
5 If shortcut reappears, RP & R both successful.
BTW, I mentioned in my OP that following problems with my DVD R/RW drive,
Packard Bell had me re install back to "out of the box" status. Before
doing
this, I am half sure I saw a System Scheduled Set Point, but never again
since. Perhaps I imagined it ...
