Thank you for you help, but it does not answer my main question as to why I
cannot do a system restore on my computer. Again thank you for trying to
help. Judy

I have multiple restoration dates. My system has been shutting down with no
reason that I can identify. I do suspect that I installed a faulty driver,
but so far I have been unable to remove it. I have tried doing a system
restore to many restoration points, but at each date even less than a week
ago, I get the message that my system cannot be restored to that date. Does
anyone have an explanation for this or better yet tell me how to do a system
restore.

See MVP Bert Kinney's System Restore pages:
http://bertk.mvps.org/index.html

Does your computer shut down completely and you have to turn it back
on again? Or does it do a complete shut down and restart?

If it is restarting then open Control Panel - System and go to the
Advanced tab.
Click on the Settings button in the Startup and Recovery (bottom)
section.
In the Startup and Recovery window click on the checkbox for
"automatically restart" to clear it; then click on Apply and OK as
needed to exit.

That should put an end to the restarts but they may be replaced by a
"Blue Screen Of Death" STOP error message. If that happens then the
content of the STOP message, including the STOP code, all 4
parameters, and any file or module names mentioned, will be a direct
clue to the underlying cause. Post that information back here if you
need help with it.

Good luck
