| I have a dual boot system with XP installed on C drive and Vista beta 2 installed on D drive. I have XP system restore active for drive C and Vista beta 2 system restore active on drive D. When using Vista , system restore points are functional and I have done a successful system restore. The problem is after I boot my XP system the next time I boot Vista, the Vista restore points are gone ?? Multiple boots of just Vista retains the Vista system restore points just fine. Its only after I boot XP, on the next Vista boot the Vista restore points disappear . Anyone else have this problem ? | Guest

| This is known and expected. As an aside, I only let System Restore monitor the system drive of its own OS and not the volume of the other OS in multiboot scenarios. "Barry C" <BarryC@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:A5C01199-DE4D-4E4D-A5C6-FB7FC760D39F@microsoft.com... Quote:

| That is exactly what I am doing Colin .. XP restore monitors only the C drive and Vista monitors only the D drive. Should I still expect XP to wipe out Vista's restore points ? Is there any circumvention to this issue ? "Colin Barnhorst" wrote: Quote:

| No, in a multiboot system you will lose the Vista restore points when you boot the other OS. "Barry C" <BarryC@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:46F16007-88EA-47BA-ABAF-06A783763AAC@microsoft.com... Quote:

| And why would that happen??? If I boot XP 32 and then XP 64 the restore points for them are fine. Why would Vista lose them? -- ------ Paul ------ www.winxpvista.com "Colin Barnhorst" <colinbarharst(remove)@msn.com> wrote in message news:etCXcz8kGHA.3596@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... Quote:

| It is a known problem. System Restore has been redesigned for Vista and its restore points are not detected as valid by XP and are therefore deleted. "PaulM" <Paul@paulsxp.com> wrote in message news:3EF69321-5EF7-433B-AC01-BC258B4B40C7@microsoft.com... Quote:
