    As you say you have many system restore points try all of them once, hope any of them will help for you. and before you do a restore, I'd recommend that you save as many of the programs/documents as you can to a disc. This will make reloading much easier. You should be able to access your control panel and select restore.

    Re: System Restore Stopped Working

    Many reasons that system restore might be unable to restore, and it doesn't mean that system restore is broken, corrupt, or needs to be re-installed.
    System restore is useful, but easily broken, and is not a replacement for regular backups.
