Might be the wrong forum but anyway, is there any function in vLite that allows you to add programs (such as 7zip, Firefox?) and or other stuff?

If there is not can someone point me in the right direction?

as of now there isnt a way through vlite. there is a way using the WAIK but i have no idea how to do it.

if i understand correctly. i think you simply install vista retail to a secondary partition, when you get to OOBE expereince, where it asks for a name..etc you press cntrl/alt/F3 and enter audit mode.

then you would install your apps. exit and boot into normal os. then use WAIK imagex to make an image iso. then use that iso in vlite and editfrom there

thats just my understanding of it, thats why i asked about doing SP1 via that method but maybe no one knows for sure

Sorry maybe i was to unclear I just want to do a format and install, then after the "install" of the OS I want some apps to install. This is because I often seem to brake my vista and I want a backup of all my program and system (not a ghost though). I have backups of media but the fundation of a system with ff, 7zip and so on is what I need. So the first user was right. But then I'll go for the batch file then

I've read sum more and saw "app to make Vista smaller" so I guess I'm stuck with doing a batch script.
