Tony Bananas Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 I need to free up at least 35 MB to be able to fit an xp installation on a cdr, and I have no more dvdr's So what can I ditch that the average user(me) will never use?
redxii Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Did you delete the i386\WIN9XMIG, i386\WIN9XUPG, and i386\WINNTUPG folders? They aren't needed if you're doing a clean install. You can also delete DOTNETFX, Support and ValueAdd folders.

Tony Bananas Posted December 11, 2008 Author Posted December 11, 2008 Thanks a bunch guys, this really spares more than enough room. I can even add some more add-ons!
Kelsenellenelvian Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 YAY!Also if youve had previus SP's integrated delete the old sp*.cab filesSP1.cab and sp2.cab are close to 25 megs together.just make sure you KEEP the newest one.
Kjhe Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 On a related note, I noticed that in an W2K3 Enterprise install CD, a directory called PRINTERS (29.6 MB) appears in the root directory of the disk. This does not exist in the XP CD. Does anyone know if it is safe to delete and under what circumstances should you leave it?
Kelsenellenelvian Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Yup it can go to. (As long as you aren't using a printer or have the drivers you need.)Setup doesn't use them.
