Yeah, unfortunately that happens quite often. System restore is very touchy. Try another restore point - maybe that works.
In the future, you may want to use imaging. That is a much safer method to restore your system. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/73828-imaging-free-macrium.html?ltr=I But do not use the Win7 built-in imaging. That is a pain too. Must be the same people developing that as the people who did system restore. I found that all windows backup/restore functions are flawed. It is better to use a free OEM program.
