| Havent looked throught the guide yet so - appoligise if this is covered there - but.... Just wondering: > what the total size of all those addons is - will a CD work,or would they need a DVD?? > I assume this would be the same procedure for installing other programmes - inc games?? - obviously would use a DVD at this stage. > Is there a way to auto sort them in the start menu (Office/Apps/Games/ Etc) - or would this need to be done manually by drag and drop afterwards?? Thanks

| This guide is awesome and actually reminded me that i needed to make an SP2 integrated disc. The fact that i can rmeove what i don't need is excellent. The only problem i had was adding .exe files as hotfixes (such as XG drivers, AVG and other basic software). I can also integrate my CD-Key into the installer so i don't have to worry if i lose it. I think i may post a guide up about how to change your XP OEM into an XP Retail (Legally). It's really simple and can come in very useful in certain circumstances.

| @ kellamne: The total size is ~ 700MB. But I doubt someone will need to integrate all addons LOL You can use a DVD if you need more space, but normally removing some Windows components will free you about 300-400MB and that's enough for integrating your favorite programs. Yes, you can install silently almost every software product including games. There are different methods like: silent switches, AutoIt scripts, repacked installers, etc. No you can't auto sort them that way. You have to repack every single addon to make it the way you mentioned.

| Yes, there are an awful lot of things in the default XP installation that just aren't required. A lot of unneccesary services that can be set to disabled which helps an incredible amount for any gaming rig. I remember disabling just a few unessential services and i got 45 seconds off of my startup time! I'll see if i can sort out some batch script to disable the services that people don't use too often (such as the messenger service) and a few other various tweaks (such as changing the QOS quota amongst other things). Once again, thanks for this Rado354! You are a great commodity to this community.
