You're confused system recovery and system restore.
System Restore makes the settings from your computer to an earlier date; It will not reinstall the operating system.
System recovery reinstalls the operating system how much you bought your machine; as for the new State.

When you try to use Windows Update, the majority of the updates fails. I get the error code 80070664. I am running Windows Vista.
Hi AirbnDoc,
I suggest that run you the Fix It Tool to solve your problem. Here is the link to use it Fix Tool:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058/en-us
I suggest you to select two updates at once and the installation, if you are prompted to restart, then restart the computer.
Disable all security software before installing the updates.
Once installed, updates allow security software.
Hope this has been helpful.
Kind regards

I am running Windows Vista and a low disk space error message.
I am running Windows Vista and a low disk space error message. I ran disk cleanup, disk defragmentation and cleaned up all the old files and still only have 793 MB free on GB total 103. I noticed that my 6.0.6002.18005_001c11ba_blobs.bin file takes 54.9 GB of space. In research, it seems that it is safe to delete this file--is that true? If so, how? It seems that I need permission to do this.
To give the control is a two-step process. Take ownership and then to give permissions.
Owner of a file allows the owner to change permissions even if they do not have the authorization to do so. It's the only thing that made property. The person who creates an object owns the object. For admins, the objects that are created are the property of administrators, not the individual.
You need start exploring as administrator to Start - All Programs - Accessories - made Windows Explorer right click and choose run as administrator.
You must therefore make a right-click folders / drive, you are interested in tick - button Properties - Security - Advanced button - property - Edit - Replace owner on Sub containers and objects tab - select one user-then Ok your way of out.
Right-click new - folder Properties - Security - Advanced - tab permissions - Edit button - select the account - check the two checkboxes - button - Advanced - Search now button Add button - select your tick - Ok button - total control in the list. OK your way out.

I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off.
I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off when the charger is plugged after about 10 to 15 minutes. If I shine a torch on the screen, I see about the display is always. If I select change user from the menu start or stop / restart the machine, the backlight turns on and will last for another 10 to 15 minutes. I tried in safe mode and the same thing happens. Can someone help me with this problem?
It could be the inverter Board or the backlight itself on the way to the outside. Whatever it is, it is definitely a hardware problem and it will take a good repairman to fix. You can contact Dell and see what they would charge to fix this, just to see if it would be more cost-effective to buy a new laptop or have it repaired. Because it is 5 years since it is manufacturing, you can be better to save your pennies for a new :-(
