Vista - Restore went wrong

02-19-2008

Hi all,
I was getting the blue screen of death on my home PC and tried to restore
Vista. Well, that fixed the blue screen of death errors, but it completely
used up all the space on my D: drive and now whenever I boot up it shows two
versions of Vista to choose from. One of them is the old version and the
other is the new version. How do I delete the old version? I don't think it
is a backup, but I am not sure.
Thanks in advance!
Beth

Hello,

look into your hard disks if each has a \Windows folder (so look in C: and
in D

.
Do you have two of them?
