@Minrva in Win ME Sys Restore can be found in System Tools/System Informaion in the 'Tools' drop down menu.

It will take your system back to a more stable point in time...you choose the date, I believe it keeps information for three weeks or so...

You will not lose any data files - but may have to install one or two programmes

Well you're certainly a better user than me - no backup, no sys.disks etc.
(real men don't backup - real men cry a lot )
LMAO!

Nope - IIRC it was a WinME and later feature.
But be very careful with such a restore, becasue if a virus gets into your system (for example) and doesn't start creating havoc soon, it will be backed up together with the rest of your system
Hmmm...but it will be backed up anyway won't it? The Reg automatically backs up...

Well - Sys Restore worked for me - as a last resort...
