Average Win2k Pro install size?

I am wondering how big is the average win2k installation (IE: How much space would the Windows folder take, inluding all files and sub-folders on a clean install?) because my system is currently using 1.53GB of space for the Windows folder alone, now this was after I accidentally installed Japanese support (However, the install failed, it couldn't find a file on the win2k pro disk or anywhere else.) so the support isn't there, however in c:\winnt\ime there is a imejpn (or imejp) folder there, and I am wondering how I can remove the files that it installed? or if 1.5GB sounds about right?

My installation is 1.87 GB. Try using Regcleaner to remove orphan registry files. Find Regcleaner here: http://www.worldstart.com/weekly-download/archives/reg-cleaner4.3.htm
