I've got No problems with these settings.

I was using nLite 1.4.5 and went from 646,61mb to 546,27mb = reduced by 100,34mb

This is my standard changes, you can make it even smaller if you want to remove more things.

I'll try to add vista theme, vista sound replacement and a new desktop as soon I know how to do it.

The vista sound is simply but the other im working on it...

more to come....
