thx for the fast reply boooggy. i checked out the registery and the updates were there, but i have a couple of questions

1. where can i find a theme for XP that is like the VISTA RTM i now there is one but i can't find it?

2. what can i remove from the components menu in nlite i tried searching this forum but nothing helped?

3. is there something that i can do to reduce the time windows XP need to install?

thx
