I've a friend who installed XP Home on a machine that formerly ran Windows 98. XP is running O.K. and she wants to remove any Windows 98 files to reclaim hard drive space.
Once you're positive that all is well, you can go into Control Panel and then Add or Remove Programs and remove the option to revert to your old operating system. This could save a lot of disk space, but don't do this until you're sure you won't want to go back.
Then run disk cleanup and do a defragmentation of the hard disk drive.
