similar problem
My problem is sort of similar. When I go to use system restore (and I've checked that it is running) I get no response at all. No errors, nothing. I click and nothing happens, as if I had never clicked at all.

More info: old virus software needed to be replaced, did so. Nothing worked. Uninstalled new virus software. Still nothing works. I can connect to the internet but certain websites are blank (hotmail.com), and some don't work properly (pogo.com) and I cannot use the system restore because when I click on 'Help and Support' where it is, it I get no response at all. I thought it might be related to Java but I've uninstalled and reinstalled the Sun Java latest program and still no go.
Any clues?? Last edited by dwndrgn; November 22nd, 2005 at 12:58 AM. |

If anyone has any ideas, perhaps a back way into the system restore - that would be great. This is driving me insane. I can't even search for the system restore file because the search doesn't work either (I get the silly dog but no text).

I did an online virus scan and it was where this all started. It found 5 viruses and got rid of them. Then I uninstalled the old antivirus system as it was outdated and installed a new antivirus program. Now I've got these issues. I thought it might be the antivirus program so I uninstalled. Nope. So now I"m stuck and I can't even do a system restore.
