Hi,
Making a restore point does not affect window eyes.
Why you lost your sound could be due to many reasons, including a
glitch. (below is a copy of a previous post on losing sound)
I believe windows makes a restore point every time you install a
program, and periodically if no installations occur.
You should get an external drive with twice the size of your c drive,
and make a system image of your c drive. Please note that you need to
make a system recovery disk, which you'll need to restore the image
onto your c drive in the event your computer can not boot up.
good luck,

re some info, which I have posted before, but is worth repeating, with
regards to losing sound.
Firstly, with regards to the ding sound which is generated by the
windows operating system.
I some times lose sound after hearing the ding sound.
This happens in explorer, Firefox, INTERNET explorer, wordpad, notepad.
My solution:
I unplug the usb connection for my headset, and WE7.2 starts speaking
via my external speakers. I then replug my usb headset and everything
is back to normal.
In this case, windows lost sound to my headset, which is a known bug to
all windows operating systems.
Now, another known bug for all windows operating systems is that
keyboard stops functioning.
I use a wireless keyboard, and when I lose sound, I hit windows key on
my usb keyboard and sometimes my sound is back.
In this case, my wireless keyboard stopped functioning.
Now, sometimes the usb keyboard is not responding either.
In this case, I unplug the usb keyboard and wait for a ding sound, and
then I replug the usb keyboard, and this sometimes does the trick, and
keyboard is working again.
However, sometimes the lost of sound is caused by a WE7.2 crash.
In this case, I use a batch file to shutdown window eyes.(batch file
instruction at bottom of email)
2, and I am back to normal.
However, sometimes after restarting WE7.2 after closing it using the
batch file, nothing works on the keyboard, except control alt delete,
and nothing in that menu works except shutdown, which is the icon on the
lower right.
Good luck to all.

Here's the instructions for making a batch file to kill window eyes:
,
download pskill from:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896683
:
then copy and paste
pskill.exe
to
c:\windows (folder)
copy the following:
pskill wineyes.exe -t
S
to a notepad document, and save it as:
kill_we.bat
then create a short-cut to the batch file and place it on the desktop.
then right click on the short-cut and press r for property
then tab to hot key and give it a hotkey.
I use control alt 0
Good luck,
aloha, Manny

> Hello I recently got a new computer with windows7 home premium. and
I recently created my first system restore point, anyway before I did
all of this I had speech and window eyes 7.5.4.1 and after it was
created everything booted up including the sounds, but no speech. My
husband is sighted and uninstalled window eyes and the kill win eyes
script was still on my machine. I tried to reinstall window eyes version
7.5 from the cd but it would not let me, since the cd mentioned an
upgrade, but when I did hit yes, it did not go through. Is there a work
around this? Also was wondering if the system restore point is going to
be created automatically weekly, am I going to have to reinstall window
eyes every time this happens? This sounds like a pain in the rear. The
computer did come with a recovery disk. What are recommended settings
that window eyes users should use in order to use system restore? I Am
on my xp machine so am really new at the windows7 OS. Any help would be
great.
