Upgrade to XP, HOW do I remove old OS files?

they get cleaned up from disk clean up check whats showing there and
highlight each one and read the message at the bottom it will say files from
your old opperating system. Rule of thumb is make sure everything has been
running ship shape for awhile and the clean them out

I have a 15GB drive, partition C:\ = 8GB D:\ = 7GB

I upgraded to XP Professional from Win98SE.
I see the option to UNINSTALL XP and restore Win98SE as OS.
I don't want to do this, never will go back to Win98SE.
Problem is...HOW do I remove these files? Where are they?

My 8GB drive has 512MB of free space.
I'm pretty sure that about 2.5GB is from the
Win98SE backup files. HELP!

I upgraded, but feel I've lost half my drive to backup.
How do I tell XP to 'dump' this information, I'm not
going back to Win98SE. The BEST upgrade process ever
in a OS from Microsoft. Smooth!

Please respond or send me an Email.
Thanks.
