MISTAKE - TRIED TO COPY OS FOR A BACKUP

Quite a while back I tried to copy Windows to disk but of course it was
too large to write to a CD (and a dumb idea to start with). That
folder has been in my CD Burning directory ever since. I need to know
how to get these "temporary files" out of my CD burner so I can use it.
Being that it's the OS, I hesitate to try anything aggressive to get
those files out of there to be able to use my burner. I tried to
delete them once and it told me an application was using one of the
files (a text file), so I aborted it. I am running XP Pro with SP2.
Would appreciate any help to fix mistake, for instance, can I move the
folder to somewhere else? Thanks.
 
you could delete all files that can be deleted
and burn the rest to cd to empty your burner folder
