my brother had 2.5 ghz amd athlon 64 bit 1.5 gig sd ram and i installed vista on his computer fine. ran and loaded faster than xp sp3. had one problem with one of the drivers because he had a yamaha pci sound card, but once i removed that everything worked find. if you vlite your vista to remove all of the crap you dont need and streamlined it with sp1 you should be good to go.

honestly you will find that vista lite better than xp.

well, I crash when I intergrate SP1 so I'll install it when i install it.

well, doing one final test, making sure my reg runs and integrates correctly. so far so good.

think my hardware will be better for x86 than x64?

Why not do a partition install first? That way you'll see if you can actually install the gutted image and to see if you like it.

Why not just test it in a virtual machine?

Virtual machines emulate a real machine meaning you are not testing your native system, that doesn't give any real indication on how it'll run on the real system.

I've virtually tested this at least 10 times (testing pre activation script and others)

I'm back though, and leaving again........ forgot to burn it!

you have to integarte sp1 before you modify vlite vista. otherwise it wont work. and you have to integrate it one one by one.

how did you manage to pre activate vista? if you use that time stopper patch, it doesn't work too well. use vista loader. and activate it after installation.

working great, much faster than XP in most places. I update (not sure if it was SP1 but there were 67 updates installed) then my keyboard and mouse don't work! re-re-re-reinstalling!

To Do list:
re-re-reinstall vista ultimate
update
THEN install everything
if fail, install XP and/or Linux and break vista DVD

My USB devices stop working. seems like a popular problem. KB938371 is the update said to cause this... though, I can't seem to find it in the update center... /me crosses fingers

thats why you need to intergrate sp1 on the full image before taking out the stuff you dont need. i had problems with loosing dvd drives and not being able to rename folders etc. but ever since intergrating sp1 into the vista dvd i have not had those problems in a long time. ever since sp1.

I'll just intergrate tweaks and take out other things (modded install text, wallpapers, things like that)


update: looks like SP1 dramatically increases image size so I'm dropping Home premium support!
