You should post to the newsgroup that pertains to the Windows O/S being
used like MS.Public.Windows.XP.General or other such newsgroups.

When you do a system restore from a vendor, it restores the machine back to
where it was when you bought it. Pull out the documentation that came with
the computer and you should have info to get into it. If this is not the
type of restore, you might end up having to do that type of restore.

This is the extent of my knowledge on this. This is also a .NET group, so
you are not very likely to get many answers to your question. Try the
Windows groups.
