Right click [My Computer] [Properties] then click on System Restore tab.
Put a check in the box for Disable Restore on all drives.
Click apply, then Reboot your PC.
After the system reboots, navigate to the System Restore tab and turn it
back on. Click apply.
Navigate to [System Tools] [Restore...] and choose [Create a Restore Point]
Provide a name for the new restore point.
Try and restore the new point just created. It should work properly.

But if he does that, he will permanently lose any preexisting restore
points. Maybe at this point it doesn't matter though.

If you are using Norton, disable it before using System Restore.

And try TAPPING F8 at startup, and go into Safe mode from the list of options.
Do a SR from there.
