Hi
That would be a GR8  idea, if it is also pointed out that it is not the be all to putting a computer back to a full working order if all goes pear shaped. The further back in time you require to go the less reliable it is.I speak from personal experience with system restore, thinking your bullet proof when you are not. Where it has saved my bacon more than it has not, it is when it doesn't is the big worry. That is why it is imperative that you make regular back ups of all important data. Fine make sure you make a restore point just before you make major changes, or if you are installing some new software, install it with "Total Uninstall" first.
