Definetly a wrong topic but meh, I'll answer anyway.

The blue text means that the files are "compressed" if I remember right. There's nothing to worry about. You can also delete those two files, they are just backup copies. You can't delete critical files from Windows without special tricks, so nothing to worry about there either.

If you'd like to free up space, try a program called CCleaner. You can download it from http://ccleaner.com.

Questions:

1. Why did the Windows 7 installer put the System Reserved partition on one drive, and the C: (OS files) on the other?   It seems to happen more often than not on machines with 2 drives.  It's damn infuriating because I can't remove the 2nd drive.
2. Can you relocate the System Reserved partition to the other drive (using software mirroring?)

Thanks,

Paul

p.s. Don't get me wrong, I have Windows 7 running on 2 PCs and 4 laptops ... love it.
