Create Instant Restore Points
It's a royal pain to create a System Restore point in Windows (which
you should do before you make changes to your PC's configuration):
Choose Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Restore,
select Create a restore point, and follow the steps in the wizard to
set a restore point. Fortunately, you can accomplish the same thing by
double-clicking a simple Visual Basic script file that you create
yourself.

To begin, click Start, All Programs, Accessories, Notepad to open Windows' text editor, and type the following lines:

rp = "Scripted Restore Point by " & WScript.ScriptName

GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\default:Systemrestore").CreateRestorePoint rp, 0, 100

Save
the file to a convenient location. Name it anything, but be sure to
give it the .vbs extension so that Notepad doesn't add its default .txt
extension.

In Vista, right-click the desktop (or the Start menu
folder from which you'll launch the script), and then choose New,
Shortcut. Type wscript.exe, followed by a space and the path to the new
script. Click Next, type a name such as Create Restore Point, and click
Finish.

Launch your new script in XP by double-clicking it. In
Vista, you have to right-click your new shortcut and select Run As
Administrator; click Continue if prompted to do so by User Account
Control.
