I do use an x86/x64 AIO disk which i made using AIO Creator.Again i combine both x86 and x64 dvds so they can fit onto one disk.About making your own 'cut down' version of Windows 7, i can't really answer that as everyone has their own different needs. The only advice i can and will give it that if you know what something is (in the removal list) and you know 100% you don't need it, then tick it for removal. If you don't know or not sure of what something in the list is then keep it.But if you just want an AIO dvd then read here: Quote

But really, unless you are on a SSD it's rarely worth the risk. I mean even 20 GB worth of stuff is nothing for the average modern HDD or SSD.Besides, if the only thing you want to do is improve performance while allowing yourself to revert back if needed, just disable them. don't hack the ISO Edited July 30, 2012 by someone_else Quote
mikdik Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Yeah cheers for the info, i regually view other peoples .lastsessions infos who have done these cut down versions just to give meideas of what i can and cannot remove. this would only be for me as my gaming os!My Idea of x64 x86 combind is really to have all reapers updates, netframework, runtimes, java,!so basically its all windows based updates, but on the subject of updates, they can be a little confusing, as i have 2 versions ofnetframe work 4, ie: reapers x64 one at over 200 megs and the aio version at about 49 megs!

mikdik Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Disabling stuff as you mentioned sound more reasonable and more secure for win7, but some stuff ill just remove like drivers, speech ect. I know my way around nlite, no probs nut still a newby to the win seven modifying stuff, i haveused rt7 lite ect but, i do find win toolkit much more easier to understand and use!One curious point id like to ask is as im 99% a xp user (win7 partition for some win 7 only games) is , is there anadvantage to using win 7 with win toolkit for adding updates ect, being win 7!
