JRS,
Thanks.  I have never seen this screen before!  XP gets better every day!
I used Christopher's link to create my 1st "manual" restore point.

I noodled the MS tool. I can create a new point. I can rollback to a previous point. Why can I not "view" all the points on a given machine? Was thinking about doing a cull/delete of really old points?
I know; I was thinking again. Dangerous!
Anyway, thank you for the optional path.
Best,
Duncan

Even less clicks..........

'Start' then 'Help and Support' and then the System Restore stuff is right there under "Pick a Task" on the right side.......

Well, I guess it's still 3 clicks to start the System Restore app, but at least it's another way to get there.. :)

If I can create System Restore Points in XP, HOW?

Then, is there any tutorial on how to use/drive System Restore?
There is something about this feature I just do not yet comprehend.
Though it seems to be working fine ATM!...... :)
1. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click System Restore.
2.  On the Welcome page, click Create a restore point.
3. On the Create a Restore Point page, enter a descriptive name for your restore point and then click Create. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/getstarted/ballew_03may19.mspx Christopher Fisk
