When your computer is restarted, a similar window will be presented. It will tell you if the restore was successful and if any files were renamed in the process.
The window says "cannot restore to the earlier settings". I tried different dates - same answer! What can I do? One last chance if you have already done a back-up of all data before doing the System Restore :- Go back one year earlier to the current date. It might work. If not, maybe your OS is corrupt.

Hi Jim. You are more than welcome. Sorry we couldn't complete your project successfully though. Switching to XP Pro sounds like a good idea. Yes, I would appreciate it if you would report back and let me know how it goes. Is the instalation sequence 1. XP Pro, 2. SP3, and finally the drivers? Want to make sure I do it in order!! Do it in this order: 1. Install XP Pro 2. Install chipset drivers if they are on the drivers disk.
Install all other drivers. Install SP3. Go online and allow windows update to do the rest.
