How to Perform a Full Recovery Using Windows Home XP
- 1). Go to your "Start" menu and select "All Programs." Open up "Accesories", "System Tools" and "System Restore."
- 2). Select "Restore My Computer." Select "Next" to begin the recovery process.
- 3). Select the date you want to restore your computer from. This will delete all programs and files from after that date, so you should bear this in mind when making your selection. Ideally, select a date immediately prior to the system crash.
- 4). Select "OK" on the restoration's final page. Your computer will automatically reboot. You should have a functional computer at this time.
