revert op system

anyone know anything about reverting your computer>? i
tried to load msn8 onto an older computer and now the
thing wont get through the start up process?

anyway to go back to about 4 hours ago?

i have no way to get to any windows controlls... it just
locks up in the process once the background shows up..

system scans get stuck at 85%

Boot the computer to Safe Mode (press F8 after the POST and before Windows
loads). Run System Restore from there.
