I RE-discovered a few days ago that my System Restore wasn't on. I discovered that the System Restore service (in Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services) would refuse to start, giving an access error. Try it on your system and see what happens; the error message should give you a clue as to what the problem was. For me, it turned out to be a problem with the ACL settings on my system drive. I fixed that with SecEdit: secedit /configure /db mysec /cfg "c:\windows\security\templates\setup security.inf" This re-sets the default security settings. Note that doing this may cause some problems if your file security is messed up (especially if you upgraded from FAT32) and you have worked around it; fixing file security may force you to undo the workarounds. You need to be administrator in order for secedit to run. I think System Restore also requires a certain minimum amount of space on the drive; I don't know what will happen if you're below the minimum. -- --Scott. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 1.63 Beta/11 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 on an AMD Athlon XP 1900 (1.6G real, 1.9G effective) with 512MB. ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
