If all was done correctly then you shouls see the following screen.;

The preceeding screen seems simple enough, just choose to either create a restore point or go back to an earlier time and click "next"

Here in the left screen shot portion you will see a calendar and one of the dates are in bold text. That signifies dates that contain a restore point. By selecting one of those you will see in the right window the restore points for that day. Select one and click "Next"

Here just confirm what you are attempting to do.

When you choose to establish a new restore point rather than go back to a previous restore point the screen above will open. Simply type in a name for the restore point in the data entry box. Be descriptive in your naming to make it easier when you come back to do a restore. Click [Create] and the process will begin.

The opening screen for System Restore contains a link called [System Restore Settings]. Clicking it will open the System Properties page which is accessible from many different locations and via many methods. The property page allows you to disable System Restore on any or all drives with the one caveat that it must be enabled on C:\ if any of the other drives are enabled. Click [Settings] to open the page shown below.

The Settings Property Sheet allows you to select the percentage of the drive space allocated to restore points. The default setting is 12% of total drive size, but this can be increased or decreased depending on the number of restore points you want to have available.
