My laptop has a 40GB hyard drive running XP SP3 and is continually updated. I use well known tools to keep unwanted files and programs off the sytemn. Over the past 5 years my hard drive has steadily filled up and now paging rates have escalated and
I must do something about this. I am suspicious about .NET and Silverlight which may have caused system bloat. I would like to remove both but wonder (a) whether this will cause noticeable problems to me, a simple user, (b) the frequency of usage by websites
and applications with which I interact, and (c) whether this is an advisable way forward? I am a Pensioner and seek to avoid replacement of my HDD, laptop or otherwise spend on unwarranted upgrades. Or, should I simply reinstall a fresh copy of XP?
