Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- system restore problem


I've tried to ignore the problem but now it's bugging me again.  I'm running
XP and had to do 3 reformats (don't even ask me why because it was a
nighmare) recently.  I am the only one who uses this computer so no other
users with passwords and I don't use a password.  Everything worked fine
except the system restore which was part of the reason I had to do the
reformats.  When I try to schedule a task I get an error saying that I don't
have permission.  When I contact HP via webchat she told me I had to put in
a password for my user name (didn't have one before!) and we walked through
it and it seemed to work.  Well it didn't.  I had it set to do a system
restore in the middle of the night and when I woke up all I saw was that
system restore was opened but did not perform the task.  The password thing
was a royal pain every time I rebooted so took it out since it didn't solve
the problem.  I tried googling the error message but the results basically
said I needed to make sure I had 'permission' to set a task.  I would think
since it's my computer and only mine I should have permission.  I can do a
manual system restore which I try to remember to do every night but that is
a pain in the you know what.  Sure would appreciate a solution to this
problem.  Thanks.  Dolores
