    I did a system restore. Everything is working but the wireless, that's another forum. But I noticed the recovery drive D: is almost full. Like 6GB with less then 1 GB free.

    Is this normal? What can I do?

    Vista 32bit
    120GB HD

    If that is the OEM recovery partition, then that is normal. It contains the system image that is used to set your computer back to factory state.

    Thanks, I agree with you on that. Today the notebook tried to back-up for a restore point and could not because the D drive was too full.

    Should I make the D drive larger?

    I would need help with that.
