Don't post your full, unmunged email address on Usenet (where you are

posting now whether you realize it or not). It will be harvested by

spammers.

System Restore isn't the correct tool for what you are trying to do.

Purchase an external hard drive and imaging software such as Acronis True

Image (my preference). You will image your system and store the image on

the external hard drive. You can image the system after a fresh install

when it is set up exactly as you like it and also do incremental backups.
