Looking for a Win7 removal process

[WildcatWhiz]

Hi forum,

I'm a long-time user of Vlite, now a Win7 user looking to create a trimmed-down version. I know that Vlite works okay with Win7, given that you don't remove certain things, but I'm intrigued by some of the batch processes some users have put together.

A lot of the things I've looked at are "EXTREME REMOVAL" and offer no customizability whatsoever. Is there a program out there that will sift through the packages and let me select which ones to delete without editing a batch file in Notepad? I'm willing to get my hands dirty, but a lot of the guides are super inaccessible.

Thanks,

Whiz

look at the stickies at top of forum, 2 there to choose from

I'm not THAT much of a n00b--I did check the stickies.

My problem is that I am trying to install Win7 onto a Dell Mini9 with an 8GB SDD. I was able to install using Vlite, but I have very little free space--I need something that will make it even smaller.

*7Customizer is out, as it doesn't remove packages

*Stefan's WinIntegrator looks nice, but it doesn't reduce the wim size and there's really no usage guide there....

What would you recommend?
