Re: System Restore option/icon/feature

Mark:

That must be it. The first attempt showed a message the file could not be
opened. I shut it down, rebooted - 3 times more - the Check File program
didn't open at all. I think I will be backingup as you read this. Thank you
- greatly!

You are probably seeing the effects of a failing hard drive. I would save
data as soon as possible, and test the drive with a hard drive diagnostic
utility. These are usually available from the drive maker's site.
An easy first try at fixing a drive is the "Error Checking" available from a
rightclick of the drive icon, Properties, Tools tab.

I have an hp Pavilion-the System Restore icon, option, feature, tab
(whatever
the correct term is) in System Tools has disappeared. I should say an
icon
is still there, but it says System Information. When I click on it the
page
that opens is hp's Help & Support. (The Microsoft Help and Support has
also
disappeard - but one at a time). There is no install disc. Appreciate
some
help is an understatement
