System Restore points won't restore?
Hello Everyone: I am on a friends pc windows ME and we tried a System Restore and it kept saying "System cannot restore to this restore point, choose another one and try again! Well I tried three different one's and it keeps saying the same thing and Not only that but the computer keeps shutting down while the sytem restore is in the middle of the Restore! Anyone who has ME, know what to do for this? Help!!!

If that doesn't work, Do you remember how you fixed your system restore? Of coarse you wont be able to Restore his computer right now, but it will work in the future.......
Just a reminder. Shut down System restore on all drives. Reboot, then turn the system restore back on and create a restore point. |

Dodge, I will try it when i get back to his place, and install the Patch first. I thought of that but was not sure xp fix that we used, would be the same for ME! Just a warning to others using ME, Dont download Media player 7.1 . Doing so gives microsoft the right to download updates when ever they want to Without your permission. I dont like take overs like that and besides, what if they download a virus, you would probably, never know where it came from! There is a big write up about it on Extreme Tech.
