That folder contains all the files of Windows XP. If your system is set up to take advantage of it, you can run System File Checker and/or replace Windows files without using the CD. Go to Start|Run, enter regedit and click OK. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion and see if the value for SourcePath in the right-pane is C:\. If not, you can change it if you choose. If you don't wish to use the feature, you can delete the folder and use the reinstallation CD for needed maintenance.

I apologize, the correct location is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup.
