Windows 7 system files I can delete/move
Hi,
I have an Asus Eee 1000 netbook which uses an 8GB SSD + 32GB SDHC for storage. I've got W7 installed working fine and only installed the bare essential apps on C and put everything I can on D (D=slow).
After all is said and done, I am left with 762MB free out of 7.51GB. I would like to know of any Windows 7 system files I can delete or move?
I've done the usual, disabled system restore, hiberation, page file, used CCleaner, prefetch and superfetch, turned off tablet PC.
I have not used a vlite'd image because I could not get one to work. After stripping everything away (even using a .inf file from a website), it always said a driver was missing during install and to insert the installation disc, so my install has been done from a standard x86 ultimate disc.
Upon using vlite, I saw large amount of space in tablet pc, scanners, and languages to remember a few. Can I remove some of these files manually? I've checked my installed languages and English is all that is present.
I've read online about the Winsxs folder, but upton reading a Microsoft blog on this, I think it is best to leave this be.
I've looked online but unlike XP (DLL Cache etc) I cannot find any system files you can safely delete.
Cheers for any help.
