iceangel89 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Hi,I just got vista and is looking on how to squeeze the 2.5GB+ DVD to a CD. I thought of deleting Media Center(600MB+) & Drivers. As for drivers i thought of Integrating the latest with vLite. So that means that i can delete the Drivers dir(from vLite) right? If not, can someone tell me what can or cannot be deleted.I am using a Toshiba M50 laptop:Intel Cetrino 1.73GHz1GB DDR RAMATI Mobility Radeon X600 256MBRealtek SoundMarvel Yukon LAN(if i am not wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizban2 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 you won't be able to get it down to a single CD, even by removing all the extras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymous_user Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 (edited) try removing (most) everything using vlite, and vista should fit on cd.it should be ok to remove all the drivers for example.

Jeremy Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 (edited) you won't be able to get it down to a single CD, even by removing all the extrasFalse, I got my ISO down to 654 MBs without removing anything marked in Red in vLite. The day I buy Vista I won't go without using vLite. Holy cow that OS is heavy....Next OS in 2009 should be 10GB or so... This is what vLite's latest version will remove: ClickyWith that selection, ISO size = 650MB. Edited February 11, 2007 by Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTOM_SK Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) If you have a printer, it is unlikely, that your Vista would fit on CD.Printer drivers take 600 MB and you still would have to remove a lot.I got Ultimate on 680 MB and Home Basic with drivers on 648 MB CD.

DeadheadDuke Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 You can order CD versions of Vista from Microsoft. Don't know the charges (probably reasonable) but they are doing it for persons who don't have DVD players. Obviously you will need to provide a product key from your DVD version. Sorry I don't remember the link but I'm sure a search for "vista on CD" at the Microsoft support site will turn up something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
