After you make the switch to Linux, it's incredible to notice the basic differences between how Windows and Linux work. On Windows, all the tools are made on top of the primary goal of "removing stuff" or "undoing what Windows had done". They lock everything up inside CAB files etc etc Whereas on Linux it's all done on the concept of "adding on top of a blank canvas", and everything is transparent, everything is a file, you don't need 3rd party apps to do changes to the system. Windows kept going all those years on the "difficult" path, just for not admitting that Linux worked better, specially with drivers, hardware recognition and installing at boot time directly from the kernel, pretty impressive.
Ah, yes, I've used this software before. I was working on my own unofficial version called Windows 1992, a modification of Windows XP that makes it look more like Windows 3.1. I never got very far into it, though.
@40two I have, and it's going well! As a matter of fact, I'll probably be releasing an unfinished build of it soon, as well as making a Discord server for people interested in development.
What a throwback to 2006 these videos are... I used to either make my "own" Windows XP ISOs or use something else like TinyXP or even Tiny2003. It mainly just caused dependency issues.
Tiny7 too... it's pretty cool in the sense that it is able to work like Linux (boot directly from USB without the need of installing it) but it makes my Radeon GPU overheats. For Intel graphics people, must be perfect because they don't need a fan. And there's also Hirens Boot DVD, very useful running from USB.
I used this back in the day. It came in handy to make a recovery CD that already had the drivers pre-installed, all the settings set, and all I had to do was just go. Especially since I purchased XP pre-SP2, so it was great to have a (mostly) patched XP disc ready to go.
if you want to download nlite from the actual page it wont work. remove the ".html" part of the url and you will access the index page. the download works there.
How do you slipstream a theme using NLite? For example, how would you add and configure the Zune theme for Windows XP to be automatically installed and set as the default theme? Please make a video explaining that.
i'm using the NLite with Windows XP... but i have 1 BIG Question: why i can't add the audio driver? the Windows XP accepts the driver, when i install it... but no with with NLite\Windows XP setup... why? it's the only driver that is 'kill' me
Actually you could change the boot screen by using this app called issopack 5. I used it to integrate Windows Vista bootscreen and login screen. You can also choose the Windows 7 bootscreen and login screen too. But do this work on a host PC running Windows XP (because I don't think issopack will run on 7, 8 or 10.)
I love this software. I made a Service Pack 4 XP iso with all Important Dell D600 drivers (ATI Mobility Radeon 9000, Dell and Intel Wireless cards, Broadcom LAN, and Sigmatel Audio). The only problem is that it is about 1.4GB in size! XD
Can you use this to make a version of XP that runs on modern hardware and can run modern programs and games like Windows 10 can? While also keeping backwards compatibility that XP would have for older things?
I'd like to use Nlite to slipstream just the SATA drivers to XP so that I can install it on my laptop. Unfortunately, the sata drivers available from HP are provided as an executable. I can open the exe in WinRar but there's tons of files on it. For example, should I copy all the exe's inf, cat, sys and oem files into it's own folder and then point nlite to insert that folder?
can i slipstream the "unofficial sp4" and the POSReady Patches until 2019 Patches into an ISO? Maybe download the POSReady Patches with WSUS Offline? anyone tried this out?
Hey, new suscriptor here! I do really like the way you communicate, you have such a peaceful voice and your content is really interesting. Thanks UA-cam for the recommendation.
Win2k is Best Windows. Seriously though, for older machines where you want a 32 bit Win OS and just don't have a whole lot of memory and just need to run some more modern basic apps (LibreOffice, Lazarus, Python, etc.), Win2k is awesome. Just surf smartly and you should be ok. I've got an old Dell Latitude CPi that still runs pretty good considering it's age (late 90's laptop). Only caveat is, you've got to install all the official Service Packs plus the unofficial rollup pack in order to get decent performance and stability. I think the only driver I had to track down was for the Netgear PCMCIA wifi card that I use with it. 2k found everything else and set it up perfectly.
@@ITAC85 Yeah, ReactOS is garbage, I don't even know why so many people talk about it (plus, it's unfinished for 10 years) The most revolutionary thing that happened in computers the last 10 years is Puppy Linux. Ok, I admit that it doesn't look fancy and it's not the prettier out there, but it could be used as a base for building awesome stuff on top of it. A full OS that don't need drivers and run from memory using less than 128 MB of RAM, pretty impressive. If they could figure out a way to run Windows apps natively there (or including Wine pre-installed) there would be definitely a lot of demand for it. Plus, some Puppy's support 64 bit these days.
Yes. For others wondering, NLite won’t work with Windows 95, 98, Me, NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 3.51, NT 4.0, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, or 10. To customize Vista, use vLite. To customize 7+, use ntLite.
6:43 Tablet PC? Unlike 7 and later, regular XP has no touch support, you needed a dedicated version for that (Windows XP Tablet PC Edition), so checking or unchecking that option is not going to make any difference. You do not risk accidentally losing touch support because it's not there in the first place!. Nice to see this program can safely and adequately patch the Tablet Pc Edition too, though.
Is there any way to make this so that it never crashes during installation/setup process? I really want to have an XP/Win 7 dual boot, but last attempt at this I got a damned BSOD and then I had to 'repair' Win 7 files after booting back into Win 7. Seriously, why. Just, WHY.
This is great I could have used this years ago when I worked as a tech. Is there any sofware that will let you do what this tool does but create a live Windows CD instead?
Could you PLEASE do a video with nLite. Where you can add Installers, programs, games and the IMPORTANT Switches needed for the installation hands free. Cause I made one years ago and tried to add Photoshop 7 with Serial I owned. Plus Reshack etc and I MISSED at the switches that do the 'next' 'accept' automatically. I think there is a file you have to make it into a .Cab? It has been awhile. THIS video would get you many happy people including me! Plus the sources for the installers into the .cab? Been awhile as you can tell.
Are there's a way to make Windows 8.1/10 lite but still can get update from Windows Update Last time i making Windows 8.1 lite and updated it using Windows Update and ended with automatic repair
As far as I know, it depends on what you change or remove. I would integrate updates before making any modifications anyways, as updates can revert any modifications you make.

I wish there was a windows 7 editor of this. Wow, such a detailed tool
There is, it is called ntLite. But it cost money ($45.17 USD or €40/year using home license).
Very useful guide, Michael! Followed it to make an ISO with the unofficial SP4 slipstreamed. Total size is 998MB lol
Do you still need to activate it after customizing it? Normal unactivated XP only works for 30days :(
How do you slipstream a theme using NLite? For example, how would you add and configure the Zune theme for Windows XP to be automatically installed and set as the default theme? Please make a video explaining that.
I think you'd have to manually set it in the $OEM$\$$ folder which is a mirror of the root where windows and all the other files are stored.
WAIT THIS IS THE OFFICIAL TESLA ACCOUNT
i'm using the NLite with Windows XP... but i have 1 BIG Question: why i can't add the audio driver?
the Windows XP accepts the driver, when i install it... but no with with NLite\Windows XP setup... why?
it's the only driver that is 'kill' me
How can you fully remove the pagefile with Nlite?
Does an unofficial SP5 exist for Windows XP?
thank GOD this is in my reccomended. Ive always wanted a program that does this.
Also imma make windows 6, windows 7 but it looks like vista
Can we change the system's logo with nLite? Ya know, change the bootscreen, the winver banner, so on and so forth..
@Skytrace Ling OFFICIAL But how can we do that to the ISO?

I know this is a little late, but YES! You can do that. Just point Nlite at the folder & it will detect what it needs.
