Ok basically just earlier today I upgraded to the Windows 7 RC from Windows Vista. Is it ok for me to delete my Windows.old program files or will doing this cause a lot of problems?

You can delete it, but make sure you've gone through it and pulled out any critical data first (if you need anything).

As long as you don't need any of your old files or data, then yes it's safe to delete Windows.old. However, if you want to roll back to Vista or get any old data files, then you'll need that folder.

edit: beaten to it by Thrax ;)
