Of course, you can. If it works with your 256mb ram, that's OK.

One more question will Copyto work with an image provided by Snapshot which is what I use to copy my ssd os every week or so? If not how do you make an image of your ultimat c drive?
Copyto compares real files and doesn't work on images such as Ghost. As such it takes 2 steps, 1st to load an image to C drive(booting up is not necessary), and 2nd to extract the windows files, in order to conduct comparison and deletion.
Copyto is a only tool to delete unwanted files under this circumstance, image of your ultimate C drive was already taken by Snapshots or Ghost etc during different stages of tweak.
The process mentioned will only work, if and only if, a list of Windows files is known or present.
When you sysnchronize your hd os with a backup windows (ultimate file deletion) does it just do the files and not reset the registry?
No. If a file exists, the synchronization will not touch or remove it. Only extra files will be deleted. If you choose "update", older files will be replaced by newer ones.
If you worry, there are many ways to preserve the config folder. You may synchronize folder to folder, e.g. system32/driver(backup Windows) to system32/driver. You will need to move all .dlls etc to a folder on both windows/system32. Just synchronize this folder without tampering with the config file. The simplest way is to backup the config folder and put the backup back after synchronization.
ok thanks.
