Restore the Operating System to a Previous State in Windows XP

System Restore takes a "snapshot" of critical system files and some
program files and stores this information as restore points. You can use
these restore points to return Windows XP to a previous state.

Using System Restore to Restore Windows XP

Restart Windows by using the Last Known Good Configuration feature:

  1. Log on to Windows as Administrator.
  2. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to
System Tools, and then click System Restore. System Restore starts.
  3. On the Welcome to System Restore page, click Restore my computer to
an earlier time (if it is not already selected), and then click Next.
  4. On the Select a Restore Point page, click the most recent system
checkpoint in the On this list, click a restore point list, and then
click Next. A System Restore message may appear that lists configuration
changes that System Restore will make. Click OK.
  5. On the Confirm Restore Point Selection page, click Next. System
Restore restores the previous Windows XP configuration, and then
restarts the computer.
  6. Log on to the computer as Administrator. The System Restore
Restoration Complete page appears.
  7. Click OK.
