Returning to an earlier system snapshot

Microsoft System Restore periodically takes a 'snapshot' of your system
settings and saves them as restore points. In most cases of hard-to-
resolve software problems, you can return to one of these restore points to
get your system running again.
Windows automatically creates an additional restore point each day, and
also each time you install software or device drivers.
Note: For more information about using Microsoft System Restore,
from Start, type 'Help' and then click Help and Support in the list of
apps. Type 'Windows system restore' in the Search Help box, then
press Enter.
Returning to a restore point
1. From Start, type 'Control Panel' and then click Control Panel in the list
of apps.

the bottom of the window.
3. Click Open System Restore, then Next.
4. Click the latest restore point (at a time when your system worked
correctly), click Next, then Finish.
