System Restore


Hi, I'm not very techie, so my fault descriptions might be a bit
Bohemian.

For some reason, Vista started to load very slowly. I'd be watching the
little blue squares run across the screen for about 4 mins. before
start.
Dumped all the I.E. add-ons, still the same, so decided to go for
System restore.

Trouble is, when I try and start System Restore, I get a message that
it is already running and to exit the programme.

I have tried the same in Safe Mode, but get the same result.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Please try and keep any responses
as simple as poss.
