Oh right, I forgot I had an external hard drive. Cool link, I will be sure to use it. Oh meh, it just occurred to me that if it's burning bad disks, it might be reading incorrectly too. Guess I'll use the laptop to do the initial copy of the Vista disk as well. I should really just get a new DVD drive...

Cool, thanks for the info. So I will definitely have to remove things to slipstream SP1, or just if I want to add the patches afterward too? I don't really want to remove anything unless I have to, but I don't want to spend forever installing patches. Will vLite grab the hotfixes from my computer or do I have to download all the installers from Microsoft? That might be a pain. By base OS, you mean I have to make the image on the 64 bit computer, right? I just remembered thankfully that the DVD writer in this machine is a bit broken, and I don't want to risk burning a bad OS disk with this one so I'm going to have to copy the image to my laptop over LAN and burn it from that most likely. Can I do that?

Hi, I was looking into reinstalling Vista because there are a few weird issues plaguing my system. I've got a Windows Vista Home Premium x64 OEM disk from newegg, pre-SP1. I want to slipstream SP1, all updates afterward, and drivers onto my disk. Probably not going to remove anything because I don't really care about that and really just want a faster setup process. Can I do this? I noticed something in the SP1 slipstreaming sticky about not being able to do anything after slipstreaming SP1, but I wasn't sure what that meant. Thanks for the help.

Eh, the day before I just installed 4.6 Beta 2 over Beta 1 and IE7 got messed up for me, now it's back to IE6 but it says it's 7 in the version. It's obviously not, because there's no tabs and overall it's quite obviously 6. I tried to reinstall it but it didn't work, how can I fix this? Should I go back to the previous restore point? Also, I think before when I uninstalled XPize 4.5 and install 4.6 Beta 1 it also reverted to IE6 when I uninstalled. What should I do to upgrade to 4.6 RC?

Hi, I just installed your SP for 98FE and I have to say nice job, it didn't break anything and now it looks nicer to boot. Just one thing though, now the system properties says Windows 98 second edition but it also says 4.10.1998 so it's still FE. You might want to fix that.
