System error
At Problemsolving
(via Configurationscreen-System-Performance-Filesystem-Problemsolving) (have Win in dutch, am not sure of the right appellations !!) the item "option to desactivate System recovery" is activated. After desactivation and restart of the pc, the item is again activated. This function never gave problems before, but lately, after a system-crash, I reformatted the HD and reloaded WinME. From then the problem occurred. What is curious too : the switch from "Performance" and "Filesystem" and further to "Problemsolving" take more time then usual. Has someone an explanation for this problem ? |

It's possibly due to a number of things -
among them.... 1) Not enough hard disk space on drive C: (min 400MB free space required) 2) corrupt SR control files (are you running Norton cr&pware?) 3) GoBack may be installed, if you used an OEM System Recovery disk to do the reinstall, rather than an OS disk. Check Add/Remove for GoBack Check the HD free space try a manual clearance of the SR files.... Boot to DOS, using your Startup Disk (if you don't have one and can't make one from Start | Add/Remove Programs, then download a diskmaker from www.bootdisk.com, and create the floppy by running the file) At the A:\ prompt, type the following commands (followed by [return]) ATTRIB -S -R -H C:\_RESTORE REN C:\_RESTORE OLDREST When the A:\ prompt returns, remove the floppy, and reboot the PC. The Control Files will be rebuilt, and a Restore point should be created. Then delete the C:\OLDREST folder, and reboot again. Finally adjust the space allocated to the restore folder -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2005, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Walter Van Bijlen" wrote in message ...

- Can't find GoBack - Have enough free space ( 10 GB) - Followed your instructions to clear SR files. After Reboot there is no _RESTORE file in C. The created OLDREST file is empty. Is this normal ?

Walter,
That's good to read. Thanks for the feedback. Noel, Sorry to have chipped in to your thread. Didn't expect to hit the nail so quickly so thought I'd give something for Walter to check whilst you were elsewhere. e-mail to follow but personally have never played with SR policies in XP as I tend only to work with individual and soho systems. -- Mike Walter Van Bijlen wrote: Indeed, Mike, the StateMgr was desactivated in the startup list !!!

No probs, Mike
