After successfully installed SP2 I want to free disk space by removing
backed up system files. How can I do this?
Thanks in advance.

where do you install from?

via sp2 slipstreamed or Windows Update?

If you chose Windows Update to install sp2, you have to have a folder
called "servicepack/i386" in your windows directory, and you can delete
it, but if you want to reinstall some components (Ex: IE6) you couldn't
to do it
