Solved How can I delete "restore points"

I have many restore points. I have ran a back up on a DVD disk so I only need the most recent restore point. There is a way to delete all but the most recent one. I know because I have done it in the past but I can't remember how. I guess I will have to start writting things down. Thanks Bob

Thanks for your reply. I should have said that I am running Vista Home Basic.
I can go to Control Panel -systems & Maintance but there is no admn tools and no free up disk space. I expect you are using an up grade from Home Basic which gives slightly different answers. I know a person can do what I want to do in Home Basic. When you get old you just can't remember some things. Thanks Bob

Thank you both. That was exactly what I wanted. I have used it before but could not remember where it was. I have it written down now. Thanks Bob
