I create restore point then it vanishes the next day

[DF]

Help...I have a problem with system restore.(XP PRO) If I create a restore
point it shows up but is gone the next day. I leave my computer on 24/7 and
those nightly restore points are missing too. I have turned off restore on
drives d,e,f,g,h, and only have my drive c restoring. My slider is up to
max for restore (1080 megs).

Many things can cause loss of Restore Points, when they are gone, they are
gone and can not be recovered or used.
Some of the things are:
Available space on hard drive
Computer usage
Space you dedicate to System Restore

If you use Real Player, try doing without it for a few days:

And others.
