QUOTE(Wee @ May 12 2008, 07:53 PM)  Sweet......My machine was set at 62.33 GB......I set it down to 8......Thanks !!!! Be very careful setting it to 8GB, vista creates a restore point at midnight every night, as well as every time you download something or restart your pc, according to the default on my pc that is. I had mine set to 3GB and could only go back about 2 days, thats useless to me, I reset mine for 37 GB on a 350GB hdd. as long as I know where they are and how to get them back this is just added protection, I am going to look into how to set the triggers which can also be found on the link that was already given to you, but please know that I am very new to computers. just wanted to give you a liitle info that I've experienced myself. |
