Cut down the size

rssfed23 · Dec 5, 2005, 12:53 PM

Hi there,
I got my vista through the post today. I installed it on one machiene (a dell), and it has no drivers for it (so back to XP)
But i have a other machine which dosent have any special drivers,
Only problem is that machiene dosent play DVD's. SO is there a way to cut down the install size to fit on a standard CD (could i safely remove the bonus driver pack)

Many thanks in advance,
Rob

Never mind, i found my own way:
I put the DVD in my dvd drive on my dell,
Then shared the whole dvd drive on our LAN
And installed it using the remote DVD drive
