Vista - Different System Restore Dialog Box

Different System Restore Dialog Box

For some odd reason, when I open System Restore, I'm presented with a
different dialog screen than I was before. Before, I was presented with
a screen that had already select the most recent restore point allowing me
to select, I Believe, 'Choose another restore point'. Now I'm not presented
with these choices. I only see a Next and a Cancel button and a space where
the choices were. When I click Next I see a list of restore points, just
like before.
But, that first screen is definitely different than what I used to see.
Has anyone any idea how I can get the old screen back??

Any help will be appreciated.
James

Re: Different System Restore Dialog Box

A Vista update seemed to have fixed the problem.
I believe it was an activex update that fixed it.
I installed a 'Visual Styles' software and it seemed to have
occurred after that. I noticed it when I went toSystem Restore
after deciding I don't want this software. Although I'm not sure
how long the dialog was like that 'cause I haven't done a restore in a
while.
But it seems to be ok now.
If anyone has had this experience, please let me know.
