Default Migrating to an SSD

And when I check my Win8 box (Intel SSD) the System Restore is
turned off by default.
So I check back on my Win7 box (OCZ-Vertex3) and that is also off
with a weird folder
icon for a 'missing C: drive'. The settings for this missing drive
are greyed out.

When I try to restore from an earlier time I've no restore points to
access.
I am sure I did not manually turn System Restore off ???


Yes all true! You heard about keeping the swapfile off of the SSD
too, right? And if that is all you got, then to turn the swapfile
off.


What do you mean , ' all true' ? Who disabled System Restore ?


Who disabled System Restore? I dunno, maybe the driver or something. Or
maybe Windows 7 does this for all SSD drives by default, I dunno. And it
has been over 2 years ago that I ran Windows 7 under an SSD. So I don't
recall what it did for System Restore.
