System Restore in Vista

[csxkidd]

Hi,
Is there a way to manage how much space is dedicated to system restore in Windows Vista?

I have a 300 GB hard drive and was looking the other day and noticed that a terrible amount was used and after searching to no avail for any unusually large files, I cleared the restore points and opened up 41GB of space. It was so much that it took about 2-3 minutes for the system restore window to show the drives that we're being monitored and I have 2GB of RAM. That is rediculous.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

Take a look at this site:

All good stuff if your are happy working at the command prompt.
