This will give you Wireless Internet, Mp3 audio playback, DVD playback, Internet Browsing (after you install a browser of your choice: explorer, *Mozilla) You must install Framework 1.1 if you want to run .net apps..

After you install this OS, Remove pagefile.sys to reduce the footprint to about 350MB. Then install your applications test and retest everything. Then when your satisfied install Minlogon and EWF. From here you can point your OS to a new shell, by regedit->find->winlogon, from here change the "shell" key to point to your new shell.

edit:

Winamp users be sure to include "midi" support

Ok, for those of you new to nLite, here is a little more in depth of an explanation of whats going on here. Basically, you grab windows (copy and paste the entire CD on to your harddrive) then open nLite and point it to the newly copied windows xp. From here you have a choice to "slip stream" a service pack. You must have already downloaded the approriate service pack to your machine. (There's no need to uncompress it) just make sure you point nLite to the .exe you downloaded.

After nLite has done its thing you will get a list of things to unCheck, don't be fooled because unchecking things means those things stay and everything checked goes. Behind the scenes this creates a file in the nLite folder a settings.ini file. Basically all it does is tell the nLite application what you have removed from the windows configuration. You can view this and either copy and paste my settings.ini or write down the things I have removed.

Here is something I have found that might help you guys out. Once you have finished a configuration and burned it to a cd and found out there was something missing or something isnt working properly. When you open nLite back up to make a "NEW" configuration you cannot use what it remembers, you must start the WHOLE process over again. Meaning copy all the files and folders from the windows cd again, and also re-slipstream the service pack. And then choose what you want to remove again.

Once you have finished your nLite configuration it creates an .ISO file. For those of you who are not sure how to get this to a CD check this program out. http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm
This application basically works just like windows xp cd-burning does. You right click on the .ISO that nLite created and click "Copy image to CD" after this application is installed and it will do the rest. It makes the CD bootable and everything. Keep in mind that its a beta app and it will have its days where its kind of buggy but for the most part I haven't run into any major troubles with it, it has been reliable (I've used it to make about 30 bootable ISO's).
