Guest ggalv Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Yesterday, I did a System Restore twice to August 11th. But the problem that I was encountering did not get fixed. So Today, I was trying to undo those two system Restores (basically to get my system as current as possible with updates). Today - In system restore, I went to "Undo Last Restoration" and the the system successfully reversed the Restore Operation that I performed at 5:55 yesterday (which was to August 11th). Then I tried to undo the first system Restore that I did at 5:15 yesterday (which was to August 11th) - however that was not an option. The only avaialable Restoration to Undo was the one I performed today. So, I tried to Restore my Computer To September 05, 2008 - System Checkpoint, which was the day before I restored my computer twice to August 11th. However I got a "Restoration Incomplete" when the computer booted up. It said that the computer cannot be restored to Friday, September 05, 2008. That No Changes Have Been Made To Your System. I had the option to Restart System Restore by Pressing "Home". But I just pressed "OK" - And The computer seems to be working fine. However, I noticed that when I go to System Restore, only the month of September is Available now for restoration points (when I try to go back to August - It does not go back). Do you guys know why did I get the "Restoration Incomplete"? Should I try Restore to September 05, 2008 again (Which was the day before I did the two system restores to August 11th, BUT I got a "Restoration Incomplete" already? Really Appreciate Your Help.

Guest ggalv Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Re: Windows XP - System Restore (Restoration Incomplete) Sorry, But this is something that came up in my other computer. I don't know if we can say that my "other" machine is infected - It did have an apparent virus - but it turn out to be false positive. Sorry, this is something new that came up today, and I was just trying to get someone's advice.
