System Check Points question niapet <guest[ at ]unknown-email.com> 12/21/2008 2:09:09 AM Hi all, I was wondering.. is there any way to move the location vista uses to store system restore checkpoints? I have vista installed to its own 30 gig partition and the restore points clutter up the breathing room really fast... I have another drive with 150+ gigs free and i would like to use that to store the check points... otherwise i have to delete all of my restore points ever few days... which is a bad idea with how often i mess with settings! lol System (in case it matters...) 2 hard drives 150 gigs each... first is split into C: and E: second is a single partition (Z:) Notebook: OS: Vista x64 home premium sp1 4gigs DDR2 800mhz ram Intel core 2 duo [ at ] 2.0 ghz.. (T5750) nvidia geforce 8700 gt 5 (512 dedicated, 1gig shared) -- niapet

You CAN limit the space allocated for storing them: http://www.petri.co.il/change_amount_of_disk_space_used_by_system_restore_in_vista.htm > >System (in case it matters...) > >2 hard drives 150 gigs each... first is split into C: and E: second is >a single partition (Z:) > >Notebook: >OS: Vista x64 home premium sp1 >4gigs DDR2 800mhz ram >Intel core 2 duo [ at ] 2.0 ghz..
