system restore it reads no restore points created i have removed system
restore monitoring from my other drives i have 50 gb free space on system
drive which is 160 gb drive this is only drive being monitored when i
monitor all drives the restore points are saved except on the system disk all
drives have over a third of there capacity free the system is dual booted but
it has not been booted into the other operating system in months, please
someone give me some help ive run chkdisk defragged the drive still wont keep
created restore points on system drive if i activate system restore on the
other drives the restore points are kept but not on the system drive c:
 
XP deletes Vista's Restore Points when they are dual booted.
There is a workaround; someone will post it for you.

If they don't, put up another thread headed: "Dual-booting; lost Vista
restore points??"

As Mr. Murphy has told you, this is a known issue when dual-booting XP
and Vista. It can't be fixed, only worked around. The usual way is to
use a third-party boot manager that can hide the operating systems from
each other. See MVP Bert Kinney's pages:
