You answered my question that I, apparently, did not word
too good. I had not loaded the 290700 patch, so the
system does not contain any restore points. Thanks you
for your reply, I will load the patch for this problem.

Before I load the fix for this problem,

What fix for what problem? If you mean that you do not
have the 290700 patch
then no, no checkpoint that has been created since 8 Sept
2001 is of any use
to you. If however you are experiencing some other
problem with system
restore then post precise details please including the
text of all error
messages seen when using system restore and in what
circumstances you se them.

To help you help us may I suggest you try the following
quick test and post
details of any problem seen.
a) Create a shortcut on your desktop to a file.
b) Create a manual checkpoint
Could you create a checkpoint?
c) Delete the shortcut
d) Restore your PC to the checkpoint you created.
Was the shortcut restored? Did you see any error
messages?
e) Reboot your PC
Was the checkpoint retained?

I need to restore my system to a previous time and have

in
Windows Me. Before I load the fix for this problem, is
there any way that the restore points can be used that
may
be in the system now, or did it create any previous
points?
