help system restore
running XP home with SPII, all updates. When I go into my computer,
properties, system restore the computer locks up. Error messages get sent. When I got into administration, services, it says system restore is on, automatic. I only have a recovery disk not the windows XP disc for this computer (though I have an XP disk from another computer). thanks for any help; -- YKW~ --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Clothes make the man.

help system restore
The only way I can help is to suggest that you quickly look into buying a
good cloning/backup program like Acronis True Image. Then invest in another HD so that you can Clone/Image/backup your HD/Personal files/etc. In this way when something goes seriously wrong you have a working up to date Clone/Image/Backup. Quite a few systems sold with "recovery Disks" will only revert back to factory state....all else will be gone. peter "You Know Who ~" wrote in message ... running XP home with SPII, all updates.
