Need to remove old restore points on my computer. Heard they take up space. I have win xp
Thanks

You can set the maximum size in the restore options. It automatically deletes the oldest points first. Simply reduce the maximum size and the rest is automatic.

Disk Space for System Restore

To use System Restore, you'll need 200 MB of free hard disk space, which is used to store the data gathered for the restore points. If you don't have this much free space, System Restore will disable itself until the space becomes available. System Restore will create and save restore points until this space is full, and will then begin writing over itself beginning with the least recent data.
200 MB isn't a lot of room to store restore points. Allocating more space will result in better protection and performance. I'd suggest allocating the maximum amount available. To allocate more than the default 200 MB of disk space to System Restore:
1.
Click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.
2.
In the System Properties dialog box, on the System Restore tab, use the slider to increase the allocated disk space, and then click OK.

If you're using more than one drive on your system, follow these steps:
1.
Click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.
2.
Click the drive you want to monitor, and then click Settings.
3.
In the Settings dialog box, shown in Figure 1, use the slider to increase the disk space, and then click OK twice.
