I have my W7 installation on a 35 Gb partition. When I installed W7 it allocated only 2% of my hard drive space to System Restore. I only had 1 restore point too. I upped it to 3% and now I have 2.
Since my W7 partition is so small I don't want to allow much more. Someday I will be able to upgrade my system and I will have a much bigger space for W7.
If You need to allow more for it go to: Control Panel - System and Security - System:
Click: System Protection
Under Protection Settings highlight: Windows 7
Click: Configure
There is a slide control to set the percentage as high as you want.
Click Apply and Ok
This will give you more restore points.
It's true that if the partition win 7 is on is rather small then system restore space will be quite small resulting in only one or two copies... If you check my screenshot you'll see the slider to change the storage capacity..
With there not being much space it's possible one was not created? If your finished with the restore operation I'd just delete it..
Have you tried using 'last known configuration'? If you haven't the restore point then usually thats your only other option.

As for the failed operation message...If it's not troubling you then just leave it.. I'm unsure how you would remove it exactly perhaps another forum member may know...
It also refers to vista, did you try downloading the diagnostic fix anyway?
I also found this page where the user used chkdsk to fix his issue: Link Removed due to 404 Error
Yes, but it is only the system validation tool. didn't do anything!
I just thought it was perhaps worth a try....Sometimes it's the weirdest thing that gives the solution but unfortunately in this case it wasn't...
