Save space on your computer by deleting the backup copy of Windows
If you have reinstalled Windows Vista you may find the installation software made a backup copy of the previous Windows installation. This can be found in a folder called Windows.old.
On my computer this was 8.5GB of wasted space that can be safely deleted, although it may be a good idea to check the user folder to ensure there are no documents left.
