Is there any way around Vista min 800MHZ CPU Requirement?... I know about the memory tweak built into VLite, same as the one built into NLite, but what I need is a way around the Vista min 800MHZ CPU Requirement?... Thanks in advance, and have a great week...

There is no 800Mhz barrier.. Vista installs even on Pentium II 366 MhZ without any tweaking/vliting or customizing at all. I know that because I hav put it on an old Thinkpad 600e back in 2006 just to see what will happen My guess is that the x86 version is optimzed for 586 or 686, that would mean any Pentium classed cpu Í or II will do.

Note that Vista supports officially Pentium III and AMD Durons/Athlons, it even correctly identifies such cpus in devicemanager with the correct processor drivers ( where win7 uses generic drivers ). Even the System Requirements for Vista Starter Edition list "pentium 3". Pentium II / AMD K6 is really slooow. But with heavy tweaking and running in classic design.. well it is possible.

Pentium IIIs start at 500Mhz in the year 2000 around.

btw: For the 512MB Barrier you don't need vlite. Start "Setup.exe /nosyscheck" from within xp and tell vista to replace it .. ;-)
