Whenever i try to use system restore, it tells me System Restoration Failed. I have already tried about 10 different restore points. My system restore IS enabled, it is set to use max amound of HD space it can.
Anyone who knows anything about what may be wrong, please help. Thanx
Additional info, added Sunday August 15 2004, 5:00 pm: i have norton internet security and anti virus, both constantly running in the background, they automatically perform a virus scan every friday, so it's not a virus. i also have 2 excellent spyware removal programs, so it's not that either.
*********************************************
The reason i want to restore is because Just about every 3d object or 3d application gets distorted. I guess something could be wrong with the video card drivers or something, but im not sure, so the first thing i thought of was system restore, so i could get back to how it was when it was working.
I have a GeForce4 MX 420 video card, using a P4 2.53Ghz computer with Windows Media Center (professional). Want to answer more questions in the Technology category?

Porn is bad and that is God's way of striking you down, ha ha.
You could take your system to a computer repair shop and have it fixed in a jiffy. Unfortunately for you, the computer repair geek will see everything you have been up to, you know, the porn you have been looking, among other unscrupulous things, so you are totally hosed.
Fortunately for you though, I can help. You need to wash your computer thoroughly. Your computer is obviously unclean as a result of the porn you have been looking at (shame shame) and it is probably sick with a virus. First, fill up a washtub or bathtub full of water. Then at 2 cups of bleach, awe screw it, dump the whole bottle of bleach in, it’s very dirty. Then submerge your machine completely and scrub thoroughly with a sponge. I almost forgot, make sure it is not plugged in before you put it in the water; that would be bad. Just to be sure there is no electrical charge, remove the battery, and you may want to stand on rubber matt while washing.
Once you are done washing the machine, let it dry out for a few days. Don't, and I mean don't plug it in unless it is dried out completely, as I said, that would be very bad and injury or death could occur. Actually, you better not plug the machine in to a power source ever again.
Next, take it outside and throw it down on the road as hard as you can and stomp it with your feet until it is dismembered. A baseball bat or golf club would do the trick too. Then put it in a box and ship it back to the bastards who made the pile of garbage in the first place.
Well actually Ching Chong in China isn't to blame; it is the engineers out in Silicon Valley who think they know how to design and program computers, so send it to them instead. Attach a note telling them you dug their computer out of the trash and decoded their hard drive, and now you know "everything" they have been up to, including the porn they have been looking at, and their plans to give machines artificial intelligence and take over the world.

Anyway, I suggest you try looking on the website for your particular OS, and try their FAQ. then if the FAQ doesn't work try the suport system. Next time you have a very technical comp realted problem got startight to the support for your OS/ office management, as they will be able to help better than here.
