HEY HEY, ok, totally retarded, but i shrunk my winsxs folder from 17 GB to 9 by simply right clicking my C: and running disk cleanup 
I had some restore points in there and old temp files that were huge.

Did you use the default check boxes , or did you select additional ones in the menu, i selected more. Also, I tabbed to the next and deleted the system restore points as I use acronis to backup my system.

Funny you bring that up as i booted up in Vista to check a few idea's about this and Poof it don't work right again crashes on boot 100% nothing changed lol..
Wanted to try out turning off System restore on it's own would clear some of it up lol.
Selected them all lol.

I had a virus on my pc, so that was the reason for a reinstall. I just got some good programs to keep Vista to mini. And save HD space.

I found the best way to minimize the diskspace winsxs uses, is to reinstall vista, and then remove compatibility from vista.. It makes it down to like a gig or 2 
and then not installing anything thats not "made for vista"
