System Restore problem - Windows 7 (yet again!!)

<< < (2/5) > >>

Shane:
Actually a repair install would get you going without having to reinstall everything :-D

To do a repair install, this way you can keep all your programs and settings.

And to do that you will need a Windows 7 disk with SP1 already on it, you can grab that here :wink:

Just tried repair install and still System Restore not working. Neither is COM+ Sys App.
Going to get some sleep now and maybe it will magically repair itself overnight!! I wish......

barryman:
My gut feeling is that it is all down to the COM+ System Application not starting. If I could find a way to get that fixed and started then SR might work....

Shane:
Wow! A repair install didnt even fix it. Then it is something deep and has to do with some of the settings that get kept.

Lets make sure it isnt a profile problem.

As a test, I want you to create a new user. Then under that new account give system restore a try. Do a backup then restore it and let me know how it goes. :wink:

barryman:
Forgive my ignorance but how do I go about setting up new user (and do I have to delete old user??)
Pls explain what I need to do
