Do you happen to be dual booting with Windows XP as that setup can wipe out
restore points. Other than that, it's possible there isn't enough space on
the hard drive for more restore points or, if you have any disk cleanup
utilities, they could be wiping out restore points as well.

As to the rest or your issue, see Jon's post in this thread.
