If you want to try System Restore go to Start->Programs->Accessories->System
Tools->System Restore or click Start->Run and type "restore" (without the
quotes) When the window opens click restrui.exe to run the System Restore
Wizard
To try and repair corrupt, damaged or missing system files go to Start->Run
and type "SFC /SCANNOW" (without the quotes). You will be prompted for your
Windows XP CD.
