System restore is a new utility available in ME and XP. The program monitors
and records changes made to the core system and registry and allows you to
"roll back" or undo a change that caused instability in your system. It
performs a restore point periodically.

Restore points are created under the following conditions:

  a.. Automatic System CheckPoints are created for every 10 hours of
computer up time but only after the computer has been idle for 2 minutes. If
this criterion is not met, then a System CheckPoint will be created once
every 24 hours after the system has been idle for 2 minutes.
  b.. Restore points are created by Installer packages that use the new
Microsoft Software Installer (MSI) technology.
  c.. Restore points are created by Installer packages that use
InstallShield 6.1 Pro and later.
  d.. Restore points are created when AutoUpdate (AU) installs an update
package.
  e.. Restore points are created when you use System Restore to roll your
system back to a different Restore Point. However, if this is done in Safe
Mode, a Restore Point will not be created.
  f.. Restore points are created manually by using the System Restore
interface.
You can either perform a manual restore point or let the system do it for
you. I have used this utility once before on XP when I could not access both
my burner and DVD drives (yet they were being picked up by the BIOS). I got
these back after using the system restore utility.
