System Restore Help !!!!

[cohen]

Hi all,

Well at school i'm part of the light + sound team - currently at school for a rehearsal.

Now a friend took the laptop home last week and did a registry clean and the laptop has been slow ever since. Now we are admin on the laptop... we have removed unneeded programs and it is still slow. We have taken it to the school IT guys and they have said that it is fine and nothing is wrong with it.

Now i picked up from IT about 1 hour ago and it is still slow now i want to do a system restore but it won't let me so is there any other way i can do a system restore????

Pls help i need the laptop by the start of next week!!! and i need help to fix it ASAP... i have done all the things i can think of!
