WinXP installation consumes minimum 1.5 GB of hard disk space.

I think 50% of software installed under XP is not needed for general user.
Does anybody knows the indirect way of installing WinXP so to save space during installation.

MS installation doesnot give enough option for leaving not needed sw

Can anybody help me!

Though I use 80GB hard disk, i have started with 1GB with Win95. I prefer light and easy sw!
