Can't delete old restore dates on D: drive

I have an inspiron desk top running vista.  Systems tray tells me my D: drive is full and I need to delete old files.  I follow the typical path for doing so and nothing works.  Can't free up any space on my D: drive whether I try to uninstall unused programs or delete old restore points.  Any suggestions?

Hi

If you are using D:\Recovery for windows backup you can not do that your D:\ is to small for backup .these or the folders that should be in D:\

$recycle,bin  is hidden 

Dell

program.files

programdata is hidden

sources

system volume information is hidden

tools

users

windows

If you have any other files or folders in the D:\ Rrecovery you have to delete them and stop backing up to that drive the drive full message will go away .

Good Luck
