Frestore/MBR

This is my first post Thanks for any help i can find in advance.
I accidently clicked on FRESTORE from the search window on a Compaq with Windows ME OS. and very quikly the system rebooted itself and now when i try to open control panel it looks like there is nothing there or when i click on My Computer and select C: there is nothing there allthough it shows 77 objects in the lower left of the window I cant see or open any of them. A log file of FRESTORE shows it changing state to DQR_USR_QUICK_RESTORE and switching to MSDOS MBR then rebooting machine. How can I undo this and get back to normal operation.
this is the log of the FRESTORE operation.

Locating AQR.INI file...
d:\cpqs\aqr.ini
UIA.DAT is c:\cpqs\uia.dat
Loading UIADLL...
c:\cpqs\uia.dat
Opening UIA.DAT file...
d:\data\EN\factory.*
Changing state to DQR_USR_QUICK_RESTORE...

Closing UIA.DAT file...
Freeing UIADLL library...
End of program...
Switching to MSDOS MBR.
Rebooting machine.

Lo vapor
You mean you booted with a startup floppy and typed in fdisk/mbr?

no. i opened MSDOS promt and enter fdisk/mbr. then reboot. was told this might correct the problem, fdisk/mbr enters ok and brings up a new promt line i enter reboot on that line and receive bad command or file name.
