Windows ME takes periodic checkpoints, I believe one every 10 hours of operation, to be used for system restores. My Windows ME computer has become my primary computer as of February since it is the one using DSL connection and has 512 of Ram. Here are counts of the checkpoints available by month. I assume that it keeps a rolling 7 months worth of checkpoints since I got this computer in July but can only see restorable checkpoints as early as September 3rd.

Is there any way to cut down on the number of checkpoints taken each day, or the number of months checkpoints are available. I would guess that the current 215 checkpoint have got to be chomping up some significant HD space and that the 215 number will increase significantly since I will have this computer turned on all the time, that was not the case from September through January, which is why those months have such a low number of checkpoints.
