vLITE reduces only HALF of claimed size!

[vovox1]

Hello,

I was trying to remove natural lang., sample videos and movie maker.

Altough these things have together somethin about 1700MB it

made my iso file (I clicked on apply and rebuild one) only about 500MB smaller.

Please whats wrong?

Thanks

Nothing wrong!

[vovox1]

No? And can u explain it to me please?

'cause I thought that when there is written 1700MB it means 1700MB and

not 500MB.

im pretty sure its the size it takes up once installed not one the disk. the wim files on the vista dvd are compressed then expanded onto the hard drive during install.

[vovox1]

oh thats probably it.

Thank you for your response

[oskingen]

normally Vista x64 Ultimate takes around 11.63gb hard drive space... when it says "1700MB" less it means that when vista is installed it will only use 9.93gb instead of the full 11.63gb. Basically its how much space you are saving compared to the full install. Make sense?
