  Hello CalebCox,

  I suggest that you try the methods below to resolve this issue.

  Method 1:

  This problem can be caused due to infection by the Virus. I suggest that you run a virus scan on your computer using Microsoft Safety scanner and check if you have the same problem.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Check if you have the same problem in the new user account.

  You can refer to the link below, which will give you information on how to create and configure user accounts in Windows XP

  If works, you can copy data to the new user account:

• Key board does not work correctly when you type. Can not get the system restore to work properly, either

  Tried to run the system restore, but it will not restore.

  Hey AnnEdelstein,

  Because you can't get the system restore to work, perform a clean boot on your Windows XP system. The guide to that is here. Which follow, and then try again to Outlook. If it works to the minimum, then boot in the boot, analyse the whole system with your Antivirus and other security you have.
  Also make sure you have the drivers for the keyboard. Search for the manufacturing of the keyboard, and they should have the drivers on their support site. I hope this has been helpful!

• can not get the system restore to work

  tried to get the system restore back to an earlier time. says I need to get rid of the useless programs.did who. I have also some icons for files, tools or downloads

  In addition to what has been mentioned, consider the following:

  First of all, what is the last time that the restoration of the system worked?

  Check your system restore settings:

  1. Click Start
  2. Right click on my computer
  3. Click on Properties.
  4. Click on System Restore
  5. If system restore is enabled, the column status of a player will show surveillance.
  6. If not, you can delete ""disable the system restore on all drives ' and then click on OK to activate "

  Is both as soon as you try to restore to the most recent available? If so, unless you have specific reasons to keep the previous restore points, clean the rest, so that you have the most recent restore point on the left.

  To do this:

  1. run Disk Cleanup

  2. click on more Options

  3. under system restore, click cleaning of

  4. click on OK

  This will free up the space. System restore needs a minimum of 200 MB of space to work.

• I have Microsoft XP 3 package and some how I lost the ability to restore the system. How can I reinstall the system restore on my computer please?

  I have Microsoft XP Package3 and somehow, I lost the ability to restore the computer to an earlier date. How can I reinstall the system on my computer restore it please?

  Thank you.

  Santosh Mathur

  E-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

  Help us understand what "I lost the ability to restore the system" actually mean for you...

  Are you unable to launch/open the system restore?
  Are you unable to create a new Restore Point manually?
  Your system restore calendar is empty dates?
  You preform a restore and get a message that has failed or nothing has changed?

  If the restore in safe mode will not do, keep reading:

  It would be useful to know a few things about your system:

  What is your system brand and model?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  What do you see (exactly) that you don't think you should see, and when you see it?

  What do not you think that you should see?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

• Can not access the system restore.

  After the removal of a virus, no visible icons on desktop except Mcafee on the toolbar at the bottom.  Was able to access the internet by clicking on Mcafee and then update.  When you click Start the only visible program is Mcafee.  Cannot see the control panel or Windows help/support or anything else.  "Run" is not available.

  Someone suggested that if I run the system restore, it could solve the problem.  But the problem is that I can't access it in the usual way.

• Browser crash, restart on its own, can not do the system restore. Help!

  OK, so I tried EVERYTHING I know how to do, and some things I did research.

  Whenever my computer restarts itself, I get an error message saying that there is a faulty driver.

  I checked my drivers with the audit tool, nothing.

  I uninstalled all unnecessary programs I could find (nothing critical, just programs like Glary Utilities, Acrobat, Flash etc..).

  Eventually I got to a point where everything I did was to get worse, and my computer told me that Windows did not start upward.  I rebooted in safe mode and tried to do a system restore.  Cannot restore point to restore I get an error indicating that the system restore was not successful.  I tried FOUR different restore points.

  I'm at my wits end!

  I don't have my Windows XP cd, or one of the disks with the computer came.  This used to be my computer at work, but let me keep as part of my departure, so all the disks are in the old company.

  Please help :(

  Computer: Dell
  Intel Core 2 Duo 2 G of RAM, Windows XP Professional

  (For some reason, the police in your post is a very light gray!)

  Please transmit the full text of the error message.

  You used the phrase "everything I've done." In addition to uninstall unused programs, what else do you have?

  If your company gave you this PC, they should have you good discs too. Fortunately, Dell XP Pro installation CD are ubiquitous and interchangeable. First of all, contact Dell to see if they can issue you a. Otherwise, see if anyone you know has one.

  A number of security (for example, Norton and Zone Alarm) programs interfere with the restoration of the system. If you identify your security programs, we can tell you how you can get the system restore to work. For now, these pages can help:

  You should be able to disable your restarts automatically in this way:

• Can't do the system restore

  I had problems with printer (what else is new?!) for the last 2 days. It will print the test pages, but something else, that I try to print I only get a white paper that passes through. I contacted HP, after all, trying even uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing has worked. I thought maybe I could do a system restore on the 15th, but I get a restore without success. There isn't any number of error message just a short message saying that it was impossible to complete the restore of the system. I've never had this problem before and I am really frustrated! Help!

• My canvas is frozen and I can't do the project I am working on reading.

  I just changed a project very well and then all of a sudden... my canvas froze. I restarted the program twice, restarted my computer, deleted my cache of media, run a disk utility... I CAN'T READ ANYTHING MORE. Mega mega issue.

  System: iMac 21.5 i5 with 12 GB of ddr3 ram

  Canvas is a term Final Cut Pro, do you mean the program monitor?

  Is this the only thing that does not? The rest of the application works normally?

  If you create a new sequence, this sequence works correctly?

  If you create a new project, this project works correctly?

  Have you tried to open a version recorded automatically your project before the anomaly occurred?

• Installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on original Vista CQ60 and now can't do the system recovery

  I have a Compaq Presario CQ60-320SA, which came with Vista Home Premium 32-bit and do a new install of 7 Pro 64-bit.  Now I want to go back but F11 does not work, and there is no recovery for a reason Manager any. The recovery partition is still there.

  I don't have useful recovery discs because when I tried to make them when I got the laptop, the process has failed for an unknown reason (I asked the TechGuys, who suggested to use a better quality than DVD, but I don't bother).

  What can I do?  Is my only option of order recovery disks?

  The main point of this exercise is to get the original settings before you install Windows XP 32-bit.  Which is the best thing to do, or should I just go directly from 7 to XP?   Will I have problems if I decide to go back to XP?

  Thank you

  No, just be sure that install you XP to the right partition, (a greater) and not to the recovery partition.

• I can't put the system restore at any point, nor the desire, it set a new restore point, error box - another restore is in progress and me stops dead.

  I am running windows Vista Home Basic; 32-bit.  Norton 360 anti virus; ALSO I can not uninstall all ADOBE programs, error says cannot locate
  %AppData%, critical then an error screen after another.  I'm agree with getting rid of most of the old files and users to start all over again, windows was on the computer when I bought it. Help

  I'm glad you're running properly again!

  And have nothing to do with registry cleaners, you've discovered.

  As you say, make regular data backups, and if something bad happens, you always have to fall back on recovery.

  Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer and help others here.

  See you soon.
