Most stable & litest build?

[Audiovore]

I used vlite awhile ago for my current install of ultimate64. I am considering a reinstall, and am wondering what should be left to play games(steam, crysis) watch videos(klite codec pack) surf, and some light photo editing with CS3?

Two small errors/bugs I am experiencing with my current install is that Picasa fails to open google earth for geotaging, and when downloading inside of firefox, the bowser for save location will not let me rename folders(IE hit the new folder button, try to name it, error pops up).

- you can remove all and that stuff will work. Try Recommended compatibility, maybe also keep WMP codecs, Color Management...

Best is to run it in trial mode for a few days then reinstall if you need anything else, if you have another partition for that it would be even easier.

Also use DVDRW or USB stick to reinstall, or if it's another partition then keep Manual Install and run setup.exe from another Windows.

- yeah that Picasa <-> Earth thing depends on some component, haven't found which, gotta do it the old way, time consuming so I delay it

- that rename thing was MS bug unless you're using very old vLite, they fixed it, just integrate all hotfixes (which you need, for example don't integrate Mail updates if you will remove Mail)
