well my system restore tab doesnt exist anymore and i dont exactly know when it vanished. and when i try to go to system restore though start it just loads and then never opens. ive tried trying to fix it by using the xp office disk to repair missing or damaged files but it still hasnt worked.

i cant i dont have a system restore tab

[happyrock]

restore will NOT be on your office disk..it would be on the windows disk

for rushin1nd...you might want to try that little trick on your computer....restore isn't there

have you tried this go start..........click run.............type msconfig click ok click on launch system restore

another way though...right click on my computer...properties...then the restore tab...if you do not have a restore tab there then you are looking at a reinstall of windows

Try this

1. Click Start, click Run, type %windir%\inf and press enter

2. Locate the Sr.inf file, (listed as Sr), right-click the file, and then click Install.

3. In the Files Needed dialog box, click Browse. Locate the Sr.sy_ file in the i386 folder of the Windows XP CD, click the file, and then click Open.

4. When the installation is complete, restart your computer
