Hi

Contact TINY before you go any further - you might invalidate any warranty
that you have with them.

You should have a secondary backup in any event because Restore
sometimes becomes corrupted along with whatever you need to correct.
Frequently recommended here is erunt.zip, a 575K freeware utility.
Saved me once from a reinstall.

Note: Erunt has an overly long readme.txt. The gist is that if you
need to use it to restore your registry and settings, go into the
start menu for RUN, then type (with an enter after each line)

cmd [to get a dos box]
cd\ [to return to a basic c:> prompt]
cd erdnt [changes to c:> erdnt
erdnt
At this point a box will come up asking you if you want things
restored.
