Since you haven't told us anything about your computer, I can only give
you some general suggestions:
1. Do you have any Symantec products installed? If yes, see this link by
MVP Bert Kinney:
http://bertk.mvps.org/html/symantecdoc1.html
2. Do you have a Gateway computer? If yes, see this information from
Jill Zoeller, MS:
Go to System in Control Panel and open the System Protection tab. Do you
see a drive called "Missing"? Selecting C:\ and deselecting "Missing"
will allow the system to take restore points normally. Note that you
will not have any restore points to restore to until a new restore point
is made.
If neither of those things fits your situation, take a look at MVP Bert
Kinney's pages about System Restore here:

Or post back with more information per this guide:
