i'm trying to restore my computer due to viruses........i've done this millions of times, i just pop in the restoration cd and wait till it tells me to insert the 2nd one....well today i tried doing that again and it stops at about 2 percent and then tells me "could not read from image file".......now i can't use the computer at all because the process was started but wasn't finished.....any help is appreciated.....thanks.
(i have windows xp and it says its a vpr matrix if that helps)

Hi. If it's any help, the VPR matrix usually has to do with memory. Have you tried Safe Mode? Press F8 repeatedly during boot. (444 in Morse?)

Your restore CD has a problem or is scratched and can't read from it. When it gets to 2% it then hangs and doesn't go any further because it can't read the CD.

You may have to reformat your harddrive. Wipe it clean and start over from new. Then install your operating system again.
