Windows Tiny Vista Unattended Activated CD ISO
Windows Tiny Vista Unattended Activated CD ISO
No product key is needed. Windows Vista is activated upon installation. Windows is fully patched with all "important" Windows Updates to 8th may 2007.
The 512Mb RAM memory requirement is reduced to just 256Mb. The requirement of almost 8Gb of disk space is reduced to less than 3Gb. This installation only takes up about 35% of the size of a normal installation of Windows Vista.
Many components have been removed from this edition of Windows, but you still have M******ft's three main programs:
Internet Explorer 7
Windows Mail (Formerly "Outlook Express")
Windows Media Player 11
You also have the new Aero theme in this edition of Windows and the ability to use Windows Update.
There are no services taken out of this special edition of Windows. Only three services have been disabled: Remote Registry, Windows Error Reporting Service, Windows Search.
You cannot do an upgrade installation from this CD, because the upgrade files have been removed. You can only install Windows by booting from the CD and formatting your partition or hard drive.
There are concerns about finding a good firewall and antivirus for Windows Vista.
If you want to use a good antivirus, get hold of NOD32 v2.70.31 (or later) and use the NSANE fix. For a firewall, you're stuck with the built in firewall it seems, at least until software vendors start to make Vista compatible firewalls. On June 7th 2007, Comodo Firewall version 3 is due for release - this will have Vista
support.
eXPerience Folder On The CD
The eXPerience folder on the CD contains the following three folders:
DirectX DLL Files
Despite Windows Vista being an absolutely massive operating system, it still does not even include DirectX DLL files! What were M******ft thinking? So if you need the DirectX 9 DLL fil (d3dx9_24/25/26/27/28/29/30/31/32/33.dll) you can just double click the file in this folder to extract these 10 DLL files to system32. This will keep compatibility with games you might have stored on another drive from a previous installation.
Ethernet Drivers
Despite Windows Vista being an absolutely massive operating system, it still does not even include some Ethernet Drivers! What were M******ft thinking?
So if your Ethernet card is not working after installing Windows Vista and
it needs its driver installing, you can use the Ethernet Driver pack thats
included in this folder.
Follow the instructions in the ReadMe.txt file.
After installing your Ethernet Card, see if your onboard sound is working, IT PROBABLY WON'T BE, it seems M******ft forgot to include Realtek AC97 sound drivers in Windows Vista, this is ridiculous considering almost every motherboard in the world has Realtek AC97 sound! Its almost as if M******ft are trying to annoy people on purpose, they give you a 2.5Gb+ DVD sized Operating System WITHOUT Ethernet Drivers, Sound Drivers or DirectX DLL files.

The ability to upgrade from an older version of Windows has also been removed manually after vLite was used. vLite does not support this at this moment in time, but this was done by removing every file and folder from the "sources" folder on the CD except the two Windows image files "boot.wim" and "install.wim"
Windows Updates
This special eXPerience edition of Windows Vista includes all the "important" Windows Updates up to Tuesday, May 8th, 2007.
