vista question

[Pure_Luck]

Anyone know of a way to install vista (preferably ultimate) on a hard drive with less than 8 gigs of space. Maybe a lite version of some sort? I am buildling a machine and my hard drive is only 8.1 gigs(its a solid state hard drive) IT also has to be 64 bit.

The question is begging to be asked...


What 'normal' stuff are you going to do with 8G RAM on a quad core system?

[AcidBomber]

lol PL, that's intense. What do you use your system for? :fear:

[Pure_Luck]

don't worry about it! But still I will see tommorow about a "light" version of vista if not I guess I can just go with xp pro

MS has Embedded Vista. I do not know if Embedded Vista is like Embedded XP where you can compile whatever OS features you want, making yourself a lean version.

=O...

lol you should get a better hard drive for Vista.
8GB of HD doesnt fit with 8GB of RAM and a quad-core processor (where do you buy them?! O.O probably really expensive eh...)
