After install SP2, deleting backup
I just installed XP Pro on a PC with only a 10 GB drive. When installing
SP2, it made a backup of the existing XP operating system (or critical files). Now that SP2 is installed and working well, how/where do I remove this backup to free up more HD disk space? |

You might want to take a look at this article: Tidying Up After Installing SP2 http://aumha.org/win5/a/sp2faq.php#after Keep in mind that once you delete C:\Windows\$NTServicePackUninstall you will not be able to uninstall Service Pack 2 through the Add/Remove Programs applet in Control Panel.
