Undo restore point failed

When I try to undo a restore point, a get an error message that the operation
has failed because of an unknown error. Then none of my other restore points
will work, either. Anybody know what goes on?

Hello Chester
Can you undo a system restore in SAFE mode ? Or, choose a more late
date and do a system restore, in safe mode

When doing a System Restore in Safe Mode it's probably best to create a
Restore Point just prior to performing the restore operation due to not
being able to "undo" the restore when performed in Safe Mode.

Hello t-4-2 an d Ramone,

Thank you, it worked in safe mode. I don't have any of the software listed
on the page that Ramone linked me to. Must be some other software conflict?
Am I right in thinking that it doesn't matter as long as I'm able to do a
restore in safe mode?

thanx again,
Chet

Hello Chester
The link given to you is basically for XP, although some in the contex
is "generic"
You are not out of the wood yet. Yes it does matter. You shouldn't hav
to do restore in safe mode, unless there is something wrong.
I'm assuming that you are now back in normal mode. Please go back t
system restore window, create a restore point. Then use that point yo
created and do a system restore again. If all goes well, maybe you ar
out of the wood

Out of curiosity, what prompted you to undo a restore point ??

Tried to do restore in normal mode. No dice. Tried turning off virus scanner.
Still no dice. Can do restore only in safe mode. Have no idea what's wrong.

Hello Chester,
Did you create a restore point as I asked you ? If yes, were you
successful in doing so ? You don't have SP1, do you ?

Right, I created a restore point and then tried to use that one to do the
system restore, which failed. Do not have sp1. Should I?
