    I've got a Dell XPS 1530 weeks ago with vista home premium, and I just have installed 4 games (COD4, Age of empires 3, DIRT and WIC) and my system partition have already 60 gigs (58 actually). Is there any progrmas that I really dont need and can be erased. I've seen a lot of dell useless progrmas and other stuff, but I dont want to erase somethign I do need.

    Soplerase guys can someboy tell me what can I erase?

    DELL XPS 1530. dual core 2.5, 3 gigs ram, Nvidia 8600, 200 gigs 7200 RPM HD, TV tunner

    CHEERS!

    erase vista, install linux :p

    Roxio, Microsoft Office (Trial) if u have it..... some dell utilities... McAfee if u dont that crap program..... turn off some unnecessary stuff (like hibernation if u dont use hibernation, reduce system restore size,...)

    Yeah, paper_wastage hit everything right on the spot. You can also remove all the random shortcuts and webpage links. If you want to, you can also uninstall Dell Support. Why use Dell Support when you have NBR, Dell Team, and an Angel right? ;) ;) :) :)
