Hi,
I have a small and quick newbie question, can I surf the internet with IE or Opera using windows PE as well as use chat programs like paltalk and msn?
All this entirly from the CD ? No Harddrive !!!
I am thinking maybe the cache files can be written to a ramdrive !!
Also can someone please explain what are windows PE limitations if I am running it From a CD and no harddrive existance at all.
Thanks in advance.

From your post I suggest you try put Bart's PE builder, seems more along the lines of what you are looking for.

I've used firebird in winpe by using the -profile switch to a ramdrive.

Thanks for reply,
just final couple of questions please... as you can tell I am still a beginner with WINPE and I am trying to work out how WINPE will work with my ram, I have downloaded most of Ram Disks software because I know I will eventually need one.
1-
At the moment I have 256 MG Ram, will that be enough for WINPE and how much
then ramdisk will I end up with after loading winpe??
2-
will I be able to run zonealarm pro with winpe without customizing zonealarm and allowing the programs I specify to access the internet on the spot? I am aware that
upon reboot those settings will go away again.
3-
if question 2 is not possible, then is it possible that I first put winpe on my hard drive and customize it in a way to make zonealarm allow those programs to access the internet, and that will work fine from the CD?

1. WINPE should use about 40mb
