System Restore problem

[John]

The problem with the system restore on my computer is
that all the restoring points that I create disapear
after 24 hours. I have recently formated my hard drive
and did a clean install, but before I did that system
restore was working just fine. I was able to create
restoring points and restore using them.

John;
Do you have all the latest updates including SP1?

Do you use Real Player?
Real Player has been known to cause loss of Restore Points.
Stop using it to see what happens.
