Octopuss Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 Good point there. I tested it and the difference in the final ISO is about 60MB - nothing to cry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octopuss Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Heh it STILL doesn't work. Reinstalled regular Business version and just removed the player and still nothing. What a POS software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Regular business with WMP removed? And, removed how? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 What a POS software.If you leave things alone, they'll actually work. WMP is a real POS IMO, but it's not Microsoft's fault is your install isn't working here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluberti Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Once you use vLite, it is no longer their fault. You've removed components that the designers expect to be there. All bets are off once you use vLite, and blaming Microsoft for a component not working when you remove something it depends on is just insane.

Octopuss Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Ok, but how will you explain that it is impossible to install on N version then? There is no vLited WMP in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 You went out of your way to buy a crippled WMP-less version... You're the first person I even hear of that's done so (there is no demand at all for it, only 1500 units of XP N was sold to OEMs and even less so to customers, likely even less for Vista N). I wouldn't be surprised if lots of media stuff doesn't work on it, much like many apps don't work for those who insist on stripping IE from the OS.BTW, Paul Thurrott seems to have had no particular issues with XP N. Not that I've tried either, nor ever plan on doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
