railmaster7 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 (edited) ive built my computer havent installed vista and i want to use Vlite, but ive read about how you use it before you install Vista. Im curious how i would do that with a brand new computer without an OS. Edited June 17, 2007 by railmaster7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigeratiPrime Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 When you run vLite it will ask for your Vista dvd or a folder where you have copied the files from it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arvind Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 (edited) you can't install vlite without an operating system.. so first you need to install either xp or vista and then use vlite.. Edited June 17, 2007 by arvind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexter.inside Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 well not unless you can get .NET 2.0 and vLite on a Windows PE disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuhi Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 railmaster7, install Vista or XP, modify the image, burn it and reinstall. Just don't activate the OS in the process until you're satisfied with the result.Just to notify you that it's possible to capture your current install, modify that image and redeploy it...haven't tried it yet but someone told me that he does it without the problem. This could be very useful, especially when new component removals are added, but not recommended in general...because if some old removal is fixed there is no easy way to adapt the change without the full reinstall from the scratch.

Saved me some trouble a couple of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
