The way I understand it, a system restore will only affect windows system files, it will not delete files you have saved, It is NOT equivalent to a factory restore. The only thing you may loose will be windows updates and any setting/preference changes. You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane. If all else fails, read instructions.
