Answer
Most of the preloaded applications provide a way to be uninstalled and
free hard disk space. Check whether the application you want to
delete has its own delete icon.
After creating all the necessary drivers diskettes using the Diskette
Factory, you can delete the diskette files.
See answers to memory questions on page 231.
You can create the operating systems diskettes or device driver diskettes
by using the Diskette Factory program or any other backup programs. If
you cannot use the Diskette Factory program, do the following:
In the U.S., access the IBM PC Company BBS to get the latest
versions of device driver diskettes.
Purchase the operating system diskettes or device driver diskettes.
Contact your IBM dealer or IBM marketing representative. (See page
