Is there any way to increase the amount of disk space used for System
Restore? In XP, it was easy to raise, but I can't find the settings dialogue
box for this in Vista, and my system only has room for 2 points. I can go all
the way back to 9/30/07! Whoopee!!

You have more than 2 restore points; they are just the 1st two!
Try having a look at your system restore section properly!
Look! Look! Look!

System Restore takes up 15% of the total capacity of your hard drive by
default.
