Last month I assigned Google DNS servers. The next day no connection could be made and no result for ipconfig in cmd. I was able to restore my computer to an earlier date and viola, everything was ok. I’ve been experiencing morelatency issues and decided last night to attempt a similar DNS assignment – this tme to my ISP’s DNS servers (some known proxy issue with AT&T’s 2wire router that this is supposed to work around.) Today I have no connectivity as before but cannot restore to earlier date – says no changes have been made… WinXP Any ideas?

I need all the space I can get right now. I don’t want to shoot myself in the foot and disable it but can I make it take up less of a footprint?

following symptoms:
- On All servers, In System Properties, there is no system restore Tab
- In Disk Cleanup/More options, System restore is Greyed out
- Some servers are consuming disk space on a daily basis in the
“System Volume information” folder. These files cannot be deleted
manually, get “file in use”

Thinking that we need to enable system restore in order to access the
cleanup functionality, The following has been done:
- There was a group policy on the domain to disable system restore,
These settings have been reversed.
- The policy has been deleted
- Group Policy modelling used to confirm settings applied
- GPresult used on servers used to confirm that settings applied
- Deleted Registry settings for System restore
- Restarted Windows
- Review Event logs for errors
- Install new server and join to domain, without antivirus or any
special software

I am finding a lot of references to system restore on Windows XP, but
not much  about Server
