Thread Name: Tech: System Restore Not Restoring
Subject: RE: Tech: System Restore Not Restoring
Just seen this thread after wrestling with my computer for most of the afternoon...aaaargh!

Running Vista, person who shall be nameless has installed a display adapter/driver for a game which has changed all the display settings and I am not happy.
I want to restore to before this was installed.

Have lots of restore points saved and have tried restoring to several different points; each time it goes through the process, restarts the computer, says it is re-initialising etc but then puts up a message saying it has been unable to restore settings for unidentified reasons, and I am back where I started.

(I also created a 'Recovery DVD' recently on prompting from the computer, but can't find what to do with this to use it to reset.)

Any ideas, pretty please?
