| | upgraded to vista home prem from xp home.. Hi, it all went smooth as pie. during the upgrade process the instalation asked me if i wanted to backup my old OS (xp).. i thought.. may as well just incase something went wrong.... Now my HDD is 78% full, i am wondering if i had made a mistake, as i understand that the old OS backup takes up alot of disk space... Is there a way to safely remove my old OS that was backed up? |
