Do I need to keep the original files for XP mode from Microsoft site?

Title says it all..

I just downloaded XP mode and Virtual PC. I saved the files from Microsoft.com onto my desktop. May I safely remove those? Or do I need to keep them somewhere?

Thank you guys!

Once XP Mode has been installed, you can safely delete them. Might be worth hanging onto them anyway, just so you don't have to re-download if you ever need to reinstall. Up to you though.
