Insignia User Manual HOW TO RESTORE YOUR COMPUTER USING WINDOWS XP The Microsoft Windows XP operating system provides System Restore to enable you to return your computer to an earlier operating state (without affecting data files) if changes to the hardware, software, or other system settings have left the computer in an undesirable operating state. You can choose to restore your computer to an earlier time, or create a restore point. Windows will guide you through the process. RESTORING THE COMPUTER TO AN EARLIER OPERATING STATE If problems occur after you install a device driver, use Device Driver Rollback to resolve the problem. Click "Start" and then "Control Panel" and "Performance and Maintenance," and then click "System." On the Hardware Tab, click "Device Manager." Right click on the driver you want to roll back and choose "Properties." Click the Driver Tab, and then click "Roll Back Driver." If that is unsuccessful, then use System Restore. Click "Start," and then "Programs," " Accessories," "System Tools," and finally "System Restore." Make sure that "Restore my computer to an earlier time" is selected and click "Next." The "Select a Restore Point" screen provides a calendar that allows you to see and select restore points. All calendar dates with available restore points appear in boldface type. Select a restore point and click "Next." If a calendar date has only one restore point, then that restore point is automatically selected. If two or more restore points are available, click the restore point that you prefer. Click "Next." The Restoration Complete screen appears after System Restore finishes collecting data and then the computer restar ts. After the computer restarts, click "OK." To change the restore point, you can either repeat the steps using a different restore point, or you can undo the restoration.
