We should not advise users of netbooks to use a method to move the System boot files which does not rewrite the F8 Repair My Computer link. Just because you choose to "repair" Win7 by reimaging doesn't mean any other consumer would want to fix their netbook that way when they're in Starbucks without disks or external images.
Let's try to figure out what's clogging the new System Reserved partition. In Control Panel>Folder Options>View unhide System and Hidden files. Post back a screenshot of the contents of both SysRserved partitions.
The method to move the System boot files is to unplug all other HD's, Mark C Partition Active,
boot into System Recovery Options to run Startup Repair - Run 3 Separate Times until Win7 boots with the System Active flags on C. You can then delete System Reserved in Disk Mgmt, recover its space if you want using Partition Wizard to Resize Partition - Video Help.
