Title: Windows Vista
Post by: tekkite07 on June 13, 2009, 01:19:03 PM

I have a fairly new computer; a Dell Pentium Dual Core, with 3 g of RAM.  Unfortunately, I purchased Windows Vista with Service Pack 1, with it.  It's driving me crazy with redundancy, stupid warnings, etc. And running slow as well.  My problem is, I keep getting a warning that I have low disk space for my backups, because the recovery drive is full.  What do I do about this?

What backups are those?
Recovery partition should never be touched.

I'm not sure what backups are being referred to.  I turned off the automatic back-up, for now.  When I check the recovery drive, it's telling me that I have 9.17 of 14.6 GB available.

Did it cure pop-up problems? Those backups are more, or less worthless anyway.

No.  They are still coming up.

Can you post a screenshot of those pop-ups?
