Default System Restore, Win XP Pro

My computer had several issues (loss of plugins, old sessions would not play at all, etc.) after I upgraded from 7.3 to 7.4.

I tried using system restore (from a variety of dates, 1 day ago to 2 weeks ago) to roll back to 7.3 but this was sketchy as well.

I thought that system restore would bring my PC back to its "normal, working status" with version 7.3 working flawlesly (as if I never even upgraded) when I rolled back to a stable system restore point?

Help!

This is why I always recommend Acronis True Image. (or even Norton Ghost)

I know this doesn't help you right now, but going forward...

3rd + for True Image. I won't do an update without a backup.

4th for True Image. Backup nightly and before you do an upgrade or change to your system. The geek's best friend

Cheers,
