I have a problem with trying to set a restore point. Wehn
I try to set one I get a message saying "System Restore
is not able to create a restore point. Please restart
computer, and then run system restore". System restore is
turned on but won't let me create any restore points.

It's possible the SR file store is corrupted. This can be corrected as
follows, go to Control Panel, open System, go to the System Restore tab,
select, "Turn off System Restore on all drives and click apply and ok.
NOTE: this will wipe out all restore points.

Reboot the system as directed, return to the System Restore tab as outlined
above, remove the check from "Turn off System Restore on all drives," click
apply and ok and reboot. Then try System Restore again.

If that fails to resolve it, try the following link:
