Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options LightEco Posted March 6, Update: Nevermind, that lets you turn the features off, but doesn't uninstall them. Roger H. Veteran Posted March 6, Thanks for the info guys, will remove some of those things now! As I stated, in Windows 7, this feature simply turns off the feature, it does not uninstall it.

SakuraKira Posted March 8, Posted March 8, MagicAndre Posted March 9, Posted March 9, Xilo Posted March 9, Windows allows you to load drivers before install for this very reason. Dowload driver. Put on USB. Load driver during the disk section. You can then install onto that drive. This post has been reported. Currently I'm at 7GB after install with page file disabled and powercfg -h off. You want an operating system of less than 4GB? Now there's a thought that would never have crossed my mind in a million years.

No Way!! Edit: Fixed Link -- GMod. Hermitt, Your Link is broken, mine is OK. Rick P. Too late to edit it too. Rick, I agree. It would help if HTG would up the edit time from 30 minutes to 1 hour. Xhi - Looks like I need to refresh the page before I post. When I am typing and still researching I open my editpad and copy everything to it while I refresh and or need g-x. How do you stay awake? I always fall asleep in my recliner. Got the TV on so that helps keep me awake.

I stumbled through this free software recently when searching for a tool to slim down Windows 7 images.

The tool's name is RT Se7en Lite and it allows to slim down existing installs and create a new iso which is used for new installations. Some time ago you could read about another tool about I did a write up, which works also for Windows 8.

The tool's name was Winreducer 8 , you might want to check it out as well. The utility I'm introducing to you today works for Windows 7 only. W8 isn't on the supported OS lists. When you install the tool first, it asks you for location of the ISO files of Windows 7 and a patch where it can extract those. It takes about min to extract the whole ISO. Strangely enough it says that WAIK is needed 1.

Wait a minute. This tool can customize Windows Server ? Not quite sure about it as I haven't tested thoroughly this utility yet.
