XP Restore
I tried to use the system go back feature to return to a date near when I got the Dimension 8300-early September. The restore calendar will not let me go back before November 1. I've had to call Dell twice because, upon login, screen message stated that it couldn't find my primary hard drive. The Dell solution was to open the cover, remove the wires from the hard drive, and then to reboot-which seemed to cure the problem.
Am I looking at reformatting the hard drive?

Are there restore points prior to Nov 1? Are you saying you have restore point prior to Nov 1st and they are corrupt? Its possible since you reinstalled the drive, those points will no longer be available. If it appears that the points prior to your reinstalling the drive are corrupt, then there is nothing that can be done to recover them unfortunately. You should probably delete them if thats the case. Kip
