clearwater Posted July 16, 2010 Posted July 16, 2010 Windows 7 ultimate down to 1.33Gb iso on my(2nd attempt)my 1st attempt 1.44gb easy no quirks bugs etc. runs fast and stable so far, rt 7 lite 1.0.9 x86 from rockers team brilliant works like a dream, no waik required .It runs on 1gb ram ok on 2gb feels like a fast XP Professional.Ps Nothing beats slitaz linux 30mb for speed this slimmed down Windows 7 is great because it has virtually no driver/ hardware issues supports loads of networkcards / audio out the box also you dont need 200Gb ram, I personally think W7 Professional-Enterprise is a good program it is expensive.
xboxhaxorz Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 cool small enough to fit on a 2gb usb stickhave you applied any tweaks, and are you sure all functionality still exists?you should post your session
clearwater Posted July 26, 2010 Author Posted July 26, 2010 cool small enough to fit on a 2gb usb stickhave you applied any tweaks, and are you sure all functionality still exists?you should post your session It all works I tend to get rid of all printing, Internet Explorer, languages, media players etc as I use firefox VLC Player Splayer etc, I never use Adobe I use Foxit Pdf reader, Sorry to sound dumb but where do I get the session from again. Just explain what I do, I am battling with my health. Regards
vinifera Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 reducing ISO size is not that hardyou can untick few options even in vlite and you will get 1.4 GB size of itthink its bigger issue to reduce installed size, you can max it to about 4.5 GBwhich to me is still bloat for OS itselfonly eXPerience managed to make it 1.5GB with his tiny7
Photek Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 only eXPerience managed to make it 1.5GB with his tiny7No, it's possible to make it 1.3 GB installed. Dunno how much functionality is gone tho.I managed to make a 1.24 GB ISO for W7 Professional 32 bit. When installed in VMWare it uses 3.7 GB (pagefile excluded).I followed the guide for what's safe to remove, so it's not anything extreme. If I had removed winsxs it should've been 2.2 GB.[OS Name= Windows 7 PROFESSIONAL][Date= 9/9/2010 8:57:11 PM][Microsoft .NET FrameWork= 3.5][Version: Release Candidate 1.4.0]Blackviper=Safe[Update][Driver][Language][Application][Components]Ease of Access Center=TrueCharacter Map=TrueDisk CleanUp=TrueInboxGames=TrueChess=TrueFreeCell=TrueHearts=TrueShanghai=TrueMinesweeper=TrueMore Games=TrueInternet Games=TrueInternet Backgammon=TrueInternet Checkers=TrueInternet Spades=TruePurblePlace=TrueSolitaire=TrueSpiderSolitaire=TrueInfrared File Transfer Application=TrueMobility Center=TrueOn-Screen Magnifier=TruePeople Near Me=TrueProjector Connectivity=TrueSpeech Recognition=TrueWelcome Center=TrueWindows Contacts=TrueWindowsGadgetPlatform=TrueWindowsSideShow=TrueWordpad=TrueWrite=True1394 Driver=TrueD_ATI Technologies=TrueD_Intel Corporation=TrueD_NVIDIA=TrueCreative Technology=True1394 Desktop Camera=TrueM_AFA Technologies=TrueM_ATI Technologies=TrueM_Aver Media Technologies=TrueM_Conexant=TrueM_Hauppauge=TrueM_Luminate-Angel Devices=TrueM_ViXS=TrueM_Windows SideShow Driver=TrueMO_Agere Systems=TrueMO_AIWA=TrueMO_Anchor Datacom BV=TrueMO_Archtek Telecom=TrueMO_ARN=TrueMO_Askey and Cardinal=TrueMO_ATI Technologies=TrueMO_Banksia,Meastro=TrueMO_Boca Research=TrueMO_Brother=TrueMO_BSB Datentechnik=TrueMO_Compaq=TrueMO_Conexant=TrueMO_Creative Labs=TrueMO_Creatix Polymedia=TrueMO_CPV-Stollmann Datensysteme=TrueMO_Digicom=TrueMO_Dynalinks and Todos=TrueMO_Eiger Labs=TrueMO_E-Tech=TrueMO_ELSA=TrueMO_Fujtisu=TrueMO_Gateway 2000=TrueMO_GSM Cellular=TrueMO_Haeussler DK & NO=TrueMO_Hayes Accura=TrueMO_Hayes=TrueMO_Hot Line Export AB=TrueMO_I-O DATA DEVICE=TrueMO_Infotel=TrueMO_Intertex=TrueMO_Ke Kommunikations Elektronic=TrueMO_KORTEX=TrueMO_LASAT COMMUNICATIONS=TrueMO_Lucent=TrueMO_Megasoft=TrueMO_Megahertz Corporation=TrueMO_Metricom=TrueMO_Microcom=TrueMO_MICRO Research=TrueMO_Motorola=TrueMO_Modular Technology=TrueMO_Multitech Systems=TrueMO_NEC=TrueMO_Neuhaus Telekommunikation=TrueMO_NISSEI=TrueMO_Nokia=TrueMO_Novalink Technologies=TrueMO_NTT Docomo=TrueMO_OLITEC=TrueMO_OMRON=TrueMO_OPTION International=TrueMO_Ositech Communications=TrueMO_Pace=TrueMO_Panasonic=TrueMO_Penril Datability Networks=TrueMO_Practical Peripherals=TrueMO_Psion Dacom=TrueMO_Racal-Airtech=TrueMO_Rockwell & Cirrus=TrueMO_Sierra Semiconductor=TrueMO_SONY=TrueMO_Sony Ericsson=TrueMO_Sony Ericsson and Motorola-Bluetooth Modem=TrueMO_Suntac=TrueMO_Supra Corporation=TrueMO_TDK Corporation=TrueMO_TOSHIBA=TrueMO_Texas Instrument=TrueMO_TKR=TrueMO_TRON B.V.

Photek Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 remove winsxs and you have FUBAR OSNope, not if it's done the right way, see link above. I have used it and it worked. It's not totally removed, it's reduced to about 200 MB (32 bit) with vlite. If you just delete the folder you'll just get a BSOD.WU can't install all updates, but that's expected since so many functions are removed (it's impossible to update something that isn't there, after all), and that occurs even if winsxs is left untouched.
