Hi, question for you, the uninstall XP is like 369 MB, is
there a reason to have this on my puter as it takes up an
enormous amount of room. Currently leaves me with 20%
free space. (I upgraded from Windows 98 to XP recently
and lost a ton of space). Now i'm finding everything
sooooooooooo slow.

thanks
karen

Karen;
Follow this:

The Disk Clean-up part should take care of the uninstall files.
Follow the rest for speed issues.

Also, you probably need to consider another hard drive.

You really should get a larger harddrive, 20gb at least.. and probably more
memory too.. 512mb is good..
