Windows Vista takes a lot of resources, we all know that. So here is the tool for easy removal of the unwanted components in order to make Vista run faster and to your liking. vLite can also create the bootable ISO and apply the tweaks directly. This tool doesn't use any kind of hacking, all files and registry entries are protected as they would be if you install the full version only without the components you select for the removal. 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.

  • new: Automatic registry defragmentation
  • new: Setup memory requirement tweak (32bit)
  • new: Image splitting support
  • new: 'Paint'

What's this?

new: Setup memory requirement tweak (32bit)

Does that mean that little hack to let you install on less than 512mb's of ram?

Yes, it let's you install vista with 256 mb of ram

Cool that's what I thought it was

Not that I'd need that. I bought Ultimate and had the 512mb's needed but a stick of ram died a couple days later and took me down to 256mb's Perfect timing.

I saw that Vista ran smooth on 256mb's of ram, but if you're a gamer, don't even attempt it

The only reason I'm even back on XP right now is because a stick of ram died. I really liked Vista
