System Restore is active and there are several restore points, Sys Res will not show them and the calendar is missing. Sys Res WILL let me create new restore points but not show them when re-running Sys Res.

Will XP CD repair this error?

do you definetly need to restore to an earlier date, or just get the peace of mind it works.

if you just want it to work for future fixes try disabling it, restart, then enable it

that usually does the trick
