vLite - Vista Lite

http://www.vlite.net/

vLite is a tool for customizing the Windows Vista installation before actually installing it.

Main features are:
hotfix, language pack and driver integration
component removal
unattended setup
tweaks
split/merge Vista installation CDs
create ISO and burn bootable CD/DVD
Windows Vista from Microsoft takes a lot of resources, we all know that. vLite provides you with an easy removal of the unwanted components in order to make Vista run faster and to your liking.

This tool doesn't use any kind of hacking, all files and registry entries are protected as they would be if you install the unedited version only with the changes you select.

It configures the installation directly before the installation, meaning you'll have to remake the ISO and reinstall it. This method is much cleaner, not to mention easier and more logical than doing it after installation on every reinstall.

Have you ever wanted to remove Windows components like Media Player, Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, MSN Explorer, Messenger...
How about not even to install them with Windows ?

But be careful when you are removing "unwanted" stuff from the installation...because you may not need it (:P), but the software you install might need it.
