Just move the slider down to a minimal setting
 
From the KB article titled:
Frequently Asked Questions Regarding System Restore in Windows XP
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/newsgroups/faqsrwxp.mspx

"To delete all but the latest restore point on your machine by using the
disk cleanup utility: Go to 'Start > All Programs > Accessories > System
Tools > Disk Cleanup'. Click on the more options tab and then click 'Clean
up' in the System Restore"
