Hi,

Setting up a HTPC (acutally rebuiling my MCE 2005 PVR), and I am only interested in running Media Center and have the basics installed (would need, IIS, RDC, IE but, that's it). I have played with vlite a little and pretty cool so far. Just wondering how far people have gone to get this running the best.

Does anyone have a Ultimate MCE install ini file for me to try ? (running home premium here)

Thanks,

-Dave

Hey David, did you manage to figure it out on the htpc vista lite media center. I'm out of luck here.

I did play with it and got rid of a bunch of stuff. Securty Center, firewall, and a small collection of other stuff, no real template that I used. I did notice a perfomance boast with VMC. I guess it's all trial and error, as I did rebuild it a few times till it seamed to work ok.

I am just trying to figure out how to get RDC working on Home prem (as in my other post). I think I have a lead but, doing this tends to take hours rebuilding the system just to try....

When someone builds a ultra light MCE image, let me know!

I'm running a few ultra light versions of Vista for testing right now, Older 462.754 AMD powered machines that normally run full vista slow !
