Ok, depending on the reason it's been blocked (tweaking app, security app 
'feature', etc.), the following should allow you to restore the function. 
If it doesn't work, that means another process running (or previously run) 
on your system has a lock on it.

1. Click Start, Run and type regedit.exe and press Enter

2. Navigate to the following key:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ 
SystemRestore

In the right-pane:

  a.. Delete the value DisableConfig
  b.. Delete the value DisableSR
3. Exit the Registry Editor.

In Windows XP Professional, you can accomplish the above using Group Policy 
Editor as well.

1. Click Start, Run and type GPEDIT.MSC

2. Navigate to this path:

  -> Computer Configuration
  --> Administrative Templates
  ---> System
  ----> System Restore

3. Set Turn off System Restore to Not Configured

4. Set Turn off Configuration to Not Configured



    Let me know if it doesn't work.

Peace,
Gman
