System restore not working

hey,,,,,i have a big problem

when i want to do a system restore, everything works fine all the way up to when it restarts.

you know when you log on and get the window that says "system restore complete"?

i dont get that, instead i get

"your computer could not be restored. No changes have been made to your computer"....

whats the problem?! this has been this way for a long time now.....

I beg to differ. I'm not stupid, but System Restore is a life saver.

there is a smile at the end of the sentence, no one here is stupid, but system restore can do more harm then help, not always, but in most cases.

NHF people, enjoy :)

Actually he is right - System Restore isn't a real BackUp-Software - so it can be that you are still missing files after using it.

Maybe in the future you'd like to use a real BackUp-solution by Acronis or Norton.

ha. norton. if only that text could be smaller.

i use superdooper do backup my mac...wonder if there is something like that for Windows.
