I need to restore my system to a couple of days ago but it has a few restore points to yesterday and none before that. The issue occurred before all restore points and i can not find a way to go further back on the points. I am on windows 7 and the issue has slown down my computer quite drastically and really need to use system restore.

Unfortunately, you may not have enough disk space to hold more restore points. You can configure windows to utilize more disk space for more restore points, but your programs and data have priority, so if you hard drive is near full, windows will have to delete the oldest restore points sooner to make way for new restore points.

Anyhow, to answer your question, you can't undelete old restore points. You'll have to work with what you got.

This link is titled use less space for restore points, but it shows where you can configure disk space and bump it up if needed.
