Hi Alex, I did get System Restore to open and I chose a restore point. This took some time to go through and then when my PC restarted it said that it hadn't changed anything and it couldn't restore the PC. Since i bought this HP pc in August, i have several times gone through a Restore attempt and always afterwards i got a message that nothing had changed and to choose a different restore point. Several times I then tried a different restore point but nothing changed. Thanks for the help
