Restore Utility Problem

[Sid]

The restore utility in XP will not let me get back to a
restore point prior to 6/18/03. Since that date, it has
created a restore point each day. Any idea what's up?

Hi Sid,

Did you install SP1a recently? That would do it.

Have you checked the amount of space allocated to System Restore? A small
allotment means fewer restore points.

Rick,

Thanks for your help. Restore space was set at max, and I
searched all files for SPla with no result. Is this cause
for concern? I have used restore 6-7 times in the last
two years without problems. Thanks again.

Sid
