I get and error when I try to use system restore.
When I run system restore from the help screen, I get "System Restore Application error signature AppName:rstrui.exe AppVer: 5.1.2600.1106 ModName: srrstr.dll ModVer: 5.1.2600.1142 Offset 000095fa".
When I run Control Panel\System\System restore tab, it abends real quick and says: An exception occurred while trying to run "shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL "C:\windows\System32\sysdm.cpl",System"
Computer is a 2 yr old Dell 4500, 512 meg ram, 250 gig harddrive partitioned into c: 25 gig ntsf, and d: e: and f: 45 gig ntsf each. Operating system is XP professional, SP1 but NOT SP2. All regular automatic updates except SP2. 14 gig avail on C (system) drive.
One note: not original harddrive. Out of space 80 gig was replaced with WD 250 gig, using software that came with it to transfer old drive contents (I think the software from WD is called Lifeguard). Old 80 gig drive was then removed. Never had any known problem with the transfer, which was 6 months ago. System is very fast and does not lag.
Already tried chkdsk C: /F/V/R/X
I HAD used partition magic 7.0 on original 80 gig harddrive.
Any ideas?
