Did something really stupid. In an attempt to follow Instructions to replace window media player 12 with
WMP 11 for work purposes, I moved system 32 files from windows/system32 folder to
A folder on the desktop, and tried to replace them with "new" system 32 files downloaded from the instruction website. I manually set a restore point prior to doing this thinking that i would be able to restore everything back to normal if a problem developed. Well of course the moving and replacing not only didnt go as represented, but the pc now won't boot. And system restore says there are no restore points to go back to (why??). When rebooting pc goes into a type of repair mode the name if which i cant remember, but says it is unable to correct the problem. I do not have a recovery disc or win 7 disc--got lost in the move. And of course I have tons of data, music,etc files, so I don't want to restore PC to original out of the box condition. I would highly appreciate any help any of may have to offer. Thanks very much in advance.
