Hello Chong,
your system image is flash:?
you can see files in flash with
dir flash:
you can then delete a file with
delete flash:filename
you need then to squeeze to free space
squeeze flash:
I would copy the file again with a more meaningful name, this a quite common error during questions in copy tftp command
Hope to help

Choong,
Have you already loaded the IOS version you need? If yes, do a "sh flash all", you should see 2 files, one is your old one that you do not want and one is a new one that you want to keep. Then follow what Giuseppe posted and you should be fine.
