Lost Icons

[tw33k]

Yesterday after applying custom icons, I lost all the icons for all Office programs and pds. I have deleted the iconcache, set program defaults, tried "open with". I tried a system restore to the time before changing the library icons but it wouldn't do anything, it stayed on the "initializing" screen for nearly half an hour before I rebooted the PC. I did it twice with the same result. I'll try again later. I also tried repairing Office a number of times but it fails every time. I get a message telling me that Office repair did not complete and have to reboot.
Apart from trying the system restore again, is there anything else I could try?

Set back to an earlier image. That will fix it.

I know but I was hoping to avoid that. I don't think I have a choice tho
