Windows 7: System Restore- restore point creation error

Hi guys,



I'm a newbie on this forum and this is my first thread. I just tried to create a restore point and ended up with this error:

Any help would be much appreciated.

By chance did you have a virtual machine running when you tried to create the restore point? If yes, try creating restore point without VM.

To troubleshoot such an error, you google the text and ID#'s. Just the first few results:

There is a hotfix for this error in Vista here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826936
It may work for Windows 7.

Did you change out the chipset given by Windows 7 installer? It may have been more compatible than the factory chipset or Intel's own chipset, if you have installed either of those.

If not and this if factory install, is there a Windows 7 chipset available on the Support Downloads webpage for your model computer? It may be modified to fix this error.

Taking the error cause literally, you could try moving Windows 7 HD to another HD port to become DISK1, etc. Then change it to boot first in BIOS setup.

thanks you guys for all your help. I did a system reboot and somehow it fixed itself!!!!! Don't know if thats a good thing or not!!

BTW: How do i mark this as solved or whatever??

Looks like it was transient. If it comes back, google the text and ID# and go to town. We'll be here to help.

Glad to hear you got this sorted out. To mark this post as solved:
