CHAPTER 6: Troubleshooting

Using Microsoft System Restore
Microsoft System Restore periodically takes “snapshots” of
your system settings and saves them as restore points. In most
cases of hard-to-resolve software problems, you can return to
one of these restore points to get your system running again.
Windows automatically creates an additional restore point
each day, and also each time you install software or device
drivers. You can also create a restore point manually. For
instructions, see “Manually creating a restore point” on
page 101.
To restore using Microsoft System Restore:
1 Click (Start), Control Panel, System and
Maintenance, then click Backup and Restore Center.
The Backup and Restore Center opens.
