First thing I do when I have a new install is to turn off the system restore - it maintains previous stuff and chews up space and slows the machien to a crawl when installing software. Make sure to install the Windows version with the latest Service Pack incorporated (slipstreamed) otherwise the service pack is going to chew up lots more.
Cutting things out will in due course bite you in the back by having the machine crash - don't do it. Basically if you install WIndows 7 it will allocate a hibernation file and a pagefile each lsightly larger than the amount of RAM in your machine. My install without hibernation file and a 256 Mb pagefile and with 1.6 Gb Office 2007 is a total of 14.5 Gb. 64 bit runs about 10% faster than 32 bit for 64 bit applications.
