windows Vista Ultimate "Blue" edition OK to be honest here, i'm not the biggest Vista fan on the planet (mostly because of DRM), but this is by far the best image I have seen out there for Vista. It's as stable as can be and I have tested it several times on my laptop, desktop and VM. works great so far for the last 6 months. This is Not an upgrade. Fully Automated install here. No need to select product key, language, or any other selection. The file is an .ISO image and is bootable. Hotfix and Language Pack integration support, KB938979 fix and more removals. Another big upgrade, little rushed because of that important fix but it has been tested and proven stable. Enjoy and report any bugs or annoyanced found. A few Tweaks: *Yes i left IE on here (after so many slammed me on my XP Blue install :) *IE isn't as bloated (simultaneous downloads for IE to 30) *Windows Mail splash screen is gone *ClearType Tuning *'Copy to Folder' and 'Move to Folder' to right click context menu *Added 'open with notepad' to right context *scaled down Windows Media Player (no AutoUpdates and fewer of the retarded skins) *"Advanced System Properties" to right-click on Computer *Added command prompt to right click context menu Components removed which cause this problem are: Game Explorer (not neccessary and has known to be an issue in vista) Printer Support (see above) Media Samples Sync Center other components removed: # drivers # printers, modems & scanners graphics ,sound and ethernet drivers are still included. # games # all games removed # hardware support # fax support internet small computer system interface (iscsi) smartcards # accessories # accessibility mobility center speech support welcome center # languages # ( keyboard languages support not removed ) simplified chinese traditional chinese japanese korean # multimedia # media center movie and dvd maker screensavers sideshow sound recorder wallpapers ( some wallpapers are remained yet) windows calendar windows media samples windows photo gallery ( photo viewer still there ) # network # connect to a network projector internet information services remote desktop and assistance remote desktop client windows collaboration # services # error reporting microsoft dfs replication offline files windows remote management windows search ( this doesnt mean you cant search files and folders.) # system # bitlocker drive encryption help ( you will able to get online help though ) microsoft agent natural language parental controls performance counters reliability and performance monitor security center tablet pc windows backup windows defender ( useless ) windows easy transfer windows sat ( windows system assesment tools, system rating wont be available for your system ) zip folder -----------------------------------
