Deleting other programs did improve performance noticably. Defragging with my
current disc space is inefficient (I have 10% unused and 15%minimum is
recommended.) Forgetting whether or not program removal will accomplish
anything, my basic question remains, why can I not remove the Office and
Student 2007 preinstalled program?

Did the MS article I posted earlier not work?

Here is the summary info on my netbook. I really would like to remove the
trial Office and Student 2007 from it. You can see how limited it is. Because
of the message I get when trying to delete it, I worry I may have a problem.
