System restore function on XP

[Paul]

I moved up to XP from ME a couple of months ago - new
drive, fresh copy of XP Professional, etc - and over the
last week or so the system restore function will not
work. Was ok up untill this time.

Any suggestions??

Hi Paul,

- Make sure there is sufficient space on the drive to house the restore
folder files
- Check system properties/SR tab settings to reduce the amount of space
allotted if it seems excessive
- Try turning it off on all drives, then restarting it. This will wipe all
existing restore points though
