Choose a different restore point is not an option when I go to system
restore. I can only see yesterday and today's restore point. How can I go
back to find older restore points or if that's not an option, how can I set
this up to restore and hold restores longer than 1 day? I updgraded to Vista
Ultimate from Windows XP.

I don't know, you only restore from existing Restore Points. But what is the
problem, or what are you trying to do otherwise, that you want to go back to
a restore point?

I am having a problem with several things and would like to go back to last
week to see if that would clear up the problem.

how big is the hard drive and how much free space is left?
 
If you are dual booting between WinXP and Vista you will loose restore
points (known problem).

If you run a boot time defrag with PerfectDisk you will lose restore points
(another known problem).
