System32 contains files that Windows must have to run. If you delete it, Windows will not be able to start. If this happens, you should use your Windows Installation Disk to do a repair installation. This will fix the problem, usually without deleting any of your data.

Deleting system32 isn't as easy as right click -> delete, though. Windows will try very hard to prevent you from deleting it. Some files can't be deleted the normal way, and some files will be automatically replaced by backups as soon as you delete them. Not all files in system32 are protected, though, so don't try it.
