System Restore Options

hi everyone, i am using Windows Vista Home Premium, ive run into a program
installation problem, ive managed to remvoe the program, but my laptop still
messes up a whole lot.

Now when i run system restore, it only gave me one option, their recommended
one...which was 10minutes before the uninstallation....i wasn't able to
choose anything else, whether it be a day back, or a month back...anyway to
fix this?, my friend has the same laptop as i do same vista version from the
same store, but he doesnt have the same problem.

I greatly appreciate your time and help,
thanks,
Umeed
