Re: SPB Restore - Do It Without Hard Reset?

Thanks for the reply. I'm starting a reset from last night's backup.

This is so strange, and frustrating. Fine one minute, unbootable the next. I almost feel like I'm back in the Windows 95 days!!

I was able to partly boot without TF3D, and access settings. I turned off TF3D to see if it would boot to the Today screen normally. It hung on the Windows 6.1 green screen for a long time, and then came up with a black/white screen I've never seen before, which started with:

"The device is unable to boot because either you have turned off the device incorrectly..."

It showed that for a while and while I was typing the text onto my PC, it went to the partially crippled Today screen. I was able to access SPB there, and started the Restore from last night's backup.

I love the TP2 when it's working right, but find it considerably less stable than I would like. And I'm very particular about what I install on the device, what Registry settings I tweak, etc., am not yet using a custom ROM, so I really didn't expect this much instability.
