How to free space take up after successful install of SP2?

[Marvin Elliott]

I have successfully installed SP2 on 3 computers. Home Edition. How to I
get rid of all the stuff that was put in a backup file by the installation
in case I had to uninstall it?
I could use the disk space freed up for a lot of other stuff and it would
slim down my total backup of my systems.

all,delete all,close-out,empty recycle bin.

Slip-stream your XP CD. Then you can delete the service pack folder
completely.
