Win7User Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Hey ben,I used Advanced option with some modification as I wanted to keep some of the components like windows search, paint etc. But when I install my OS Aero theme was not working infact none of the themes were working. I even tried to patch theme files and tried to apply some third party themes but I am unable to apply any theme. Can you please tell how to enable theme?I am again trying to use advanced option this time I have enable themes lets see how it goes.Don't forget to set : TWEAKS -> System -> UXTheme patch = EnableDon't forget to set : Services -> Themes -> AutomaticThis one should be set as well : Services -> Desktop Window Manager Session Manager -> Automatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nice_guy75 Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I am having one more problem in my trimmed OS. Apart from Aero theme my OS is not able to connect to my wifi router. I tried each and everything but problem still persists. When I see wireless Netowork connection status I see 412gbps in speed but there is not connection to my wifi router.I suppose some service is disabled, I don't know which one.

Win7User Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 @ nice_guy75Mate, you'd be better off using "Tweaked Settings" instead of "Advanced" as tracing back the lot would end up using different settings than in "Advanced" mode anyway.Make sure you've got the following enabled as far Themes, Aero Peak and ClearType are concerned.

But at the same time I also wish to keep some components like paint, wordpad, windows Media Player, Windows Photo Viewer, Windows disk image burner, etc. I managed to trim my OS to 935 mb but Aero theme and wifi problem still not solved. If you can share your lastsession.ini with me that would be great. Edited June 3, 2010 by nice_guy75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zumoc Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) When it comes to reducing the operating system, I think it is useful to specify that 32 or 64bit. A sysop 64bit can not be reduced as a 32bit. Unless you remove the framework , will be very difficult to go below 1.2-1.4GB for a 64bit without losing important features that should inevitably reinstalled. Maybe you can increase the size of the winsxs folder and the folder driverstore. In my case I have managed to bring a sysop 64bit less than 4gb installed . I like to reduce it more, but for now (well in the future) I doubt that there may be further large reductions.

nice_guy75 Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 1.7 GB.That is too much, I have already trimmed my OS to 1.4 gb with most of my required components. I wish to go below 1gb mark. I guess you must be talking about 64bit and I am talking about 32bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
