M_win

Hello. I recently made some changes to the registry, which I believe messed up my installation (the tool I was using required me to reboot, once I had rebooted, I received a BSOD - 0x000000F4 closely following seeing my mouse pointer for about... 2 seconds.) Right, so anyways, no problem! I made a system restore point! So I figure I would just boot into winRE and restore... except when I get to the screen to confirm restore, I am given a list of drives, but only one drive is listed. "Drive C. - status: you must enable system protection on this drive" (winRE recognizes drive D as my windows 7 drive...which doesn't even show up on this list.) Amongst all that, the checkbox AND the button labeled "next" are both greyed out. Is there anything I can do to recover from here? Or am I screwed for good?

Hello. A couple months back, I made a quick script in PHP that takes values from a webpage, and inserts them into an SQL database. The script worked for a while, until recently when my web host upgraded to a new server. Now the script always gives me "(52) Empty reply from server" (using curl). My knowledge on fixing these sorts of things is fairly limited, so I came here looking for any help or suggestions someone might be willing to offer. Thanks! My script: error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT); $max_execution_time = ini_get( 'max_execution_time' ); require("updatesig.php"); mysql_connect("localhost","myusername","mypassword") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("hlallian_rank") or die(mysql_error()); //After Connection $result1 = mysql_query("SELECT name, rank FROM group") or die(mysql_error()); while ($row1 = mysql_fetch_array($result1, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { $char = $row1['name']; // echo "<br/>updating $char"; $searchStatus = getCharData($char, $charData); $exppercent = sprintf('<br>%.2F', $charData['expPercent']).'%'; mysql_query("UPDATE group SET class='{$charData['jobImageURL']}', avatar='{$charData['characterImageURL']}', pet='{$charData['petImageURL']}', level='{$charData['level']}', exp='{$charData['experience']}', percent='{$exppercent}', rank='{$charData['rank']}' WHERE name='{$char}'")or die(mysql_error()); set_time_limit( $max_execution_time ); } Updatesig.php contains the code that fetches the data from the website, using regular expressions and preg_match.
