what can I safely remove?

I use pc for gaming, old and new games, use both ie7 and firefox to browse, use office 2007, use outlook express, use icq and msn messenger, foobar2000, winamp, media player classic as part of klite codec pack to play movies.

want suppot for dsl/cable connections, maybe some home networking in the future(or to share with the preset with friends) no webserver here! no domain either! right now connect through the windows pppoe dialer.

want full hardware suppot - mobile phone, joystick, cd writing, printing, camera's, scanners ect!

want full software support...without sudden dependency problems...its a pain to do a reinstall or trying to reinstall a removed component...!

i do use microsoft update without live updates

need full functionality without any bloatware!
