Answer 1

Restore to when you had it
Restoring the Computer to an Earlier Operating State
NOTICE: Before you restore the computer to an earlier operating state, save and close any open files and exit any
open programs. Do not alter, open, or delete any files or programs until the system restoration is complete.
1 Click the Start button, point to All Programs→Accessories→System Tools, and then click System
Restore.
2 Ensure that Restore my computer to an earlier time is selected and click Next.
3 Click a calendar date to which you want to restore your computer.
The Select a Restore Point screen provides a calendar that allows you to see and select restore points.
All calendar dates with available restore points appear in boldface type.
4 Select a restore point and click Next.
If a calendar date has only one restore point, then that restore point is automatically selected. If two or more restore points are available, click the restore point that you prefer.
5 Click Next.
The Restoration Complete screen appears after System Restore finishes collecting data and then the computer restarts.
6 After the computer restarts, click OK.
To change the restore point, you can either repeat the steps using a different restore point, or you can
undo the restoration.

Answer 2

First hit Ctrl+Escape (or just hit the key that has the Windows icon on it) to bring up the Windows Start Menu.

Click on Settings-->Taskbar and Start Menu settings. Check the "Keep taskbar on top of other windows" and uncheck the
"Autohide..."

press the start windows key and it should pop up then you can right click and lock it in place. if its in the wrong place put your mouse where the clock is and click and hold to drag it where you want the clock to be. it wont look like its going but dont let up til u get where you want it and when u let up it will move. good luck to you
