    Windows 7 System Restore utility has now merged with the Windows Backup utility. Press F8 when your computer starts > Choose System Recovery option > put you admin password > then do System Restore or Windows complete pc restore.

    What version of Windows 7 did you install?

    I hear that the Beta's have a bug in them that causes something similar to your issue.
