cant use vlite under XP corp SP2 64

[Brando569]

vlite wont run because it says it needs me to install the stuff for the file system filter manager, so i tried every XP cd i have and every 2003 cd i have and none of them seem to work, what can i do about this?

The first thing that comes to me is that you're trying to use Vlite on XP.

Vlite is for Vista. If you're trying to downsize your XP installation you need Nlite.

no he's trying to run the vlite tool under xp64

you tried pointing it at your xp64sp2 disc?

I m not sure but try to use Capability Option to run vlite under Windows XP x64 Edition.

yep ive tried XP Pro (32 bit), XP Pro SP2 (32bit), XP 64 Corp, and my Nlited XP 64 Corp

I m not sure but try to use Capability Option to run vlite under Windows XP x64 Edition.

how do i do that?

Right Click on vlite shoutcut and look for Capability tab into Properties. In this Select an OS and apply the changes.

One more question to Brando569

Have U installed .Net Framework 2.0 ?

You can't use the filter manager because it is 32-bit, specifically build 6.0.6000.16386 (vista_rtm.061101-2205)

The proper one should be the one in \Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\ia64, that gets installed with the Vista RTM WAIK.

[Brando569]

well then is there anyway that i can get this to work?

[bledd]

might be easiest to create a virtual machine, install xp on that (lite if you want it to go quicker -but dont remove the filter ) then run vlite in there

It should work on x64, when it prompts you for the filter manager install you should provide it with the x64 sp2 full cd, not the one in which you removed the filter manager.
