Vista System Repair doesn't work after Acronis Recovery

Thread needs solution

Hi. I did a True Image mirror of Drive C: of my HP Pavilion Entertainment PC laptop (OS Vista Home Premium v. 6) yesterday. Then today, realizing I had forgotten to do the same for the Recovery Partition (Drive D:), I did an image of Drive D:, including an update of Drive C:.

Then, following expert advice, I deleted the partition and started uninstalling programs. After trying twice to do this with Symantec Live Update (which produced no window or menu, except one to say that the process was already running), I rebooted, got a genuine, old-style BSD, and had to re-lay the mirror image of C: and D:. It seemed to work, but the half dozen Restore Points had not only disappeared, but I couldn't even get System Restore either to restore or to create a restore point. Specifically the message I got was:

"There was an unexpected error in the property page. Incompatible version of the serializing package. (0x8007024)
Please close the property page and try again."

I think I must have selected an incorrect option when restoring. Can anyone see where I've gone wrong?

Thanks
