Help with "System Restore"

[karatelovr]

Is there a way to choose a System Restore date from the previous month? I had had SR turned off for a few weeks so the earliest date I would have would be Feb. However, even though the pointer turns into a "hand" when I try and click on the << to back up a month, nothing happens.

thx

Yes, I am using XP Home. However, if you read my original post, the computer won't let me choose a date further back than March 1st. It gives me the icon << to go back a month, but won't let me click on it!

if you had it turned off for a few weeks all restore points before you turned it off are gone !! latest goback date would be the day you turned it back on.
