anything I can delete to save space?

Is there anything useless that I can delete to save space in my xp installation? I've already removed c:\windows\driver cache\i386\driver. cab because I can take em off the cd, saved about 100mb of space right there.

I seriously wouldn't take that out. If you are running out of space, buy a bigger drive. Don't remove files from the WINNT directory to save yourself a headache later on. You can delete it, but I advise against it--you're call. MS did that so you wouldn't have to stick in the CD everytime you install new hardware for one.

For the C: drive, you can disable hibernation and system restore...that will buy you some space.
