Quality Windows 7 Lite ISO? Anyone know a good one?

[d3v]

Hi all, I'm getting a lot of crappy spec netbooks that are running Windows 7 on poor quality CPU's and 1GB RAM so I'm after a Lite stripped down verison of Windows 7 that works realiably. Does anyone know a good one?

It's not recommended to use lite/modded versions iso of Windows 7 because they are unofficial and may contain system files malfunction or malware :rolleyes:

You can just install a normal version of Windows 7 (home ,pro , ultimate ..whatever.) and then use a Windows 7 manager software to optimize your Windows behavior (services , processes ..etc) and you are done! :)

There are many Windows 7 managers/tweakers :

Yamicsoft Windows 7 Manager 4.4.2

Ohh..your netbook spec. too old, use w7 starter or windows xp. Dont use w7 mod.

I have one of those crappy net books and I installed a lite version of Windows 7 on it. It works but the net book is is still slow and crappy. Also note that lite versions of Windows 7 are limited and will only do simple things. If you want to try it, I found a copy of Windows 7 lite on TPB (several years ago), but it may not be available any more.

I am using this one in VM. Window 7 lite SP1

And I agree with cyberboom's post .Use normal one or windows Thin PC if hard disk space is less .

There is no sense to be a skeptic, I have personally tested it with Windows 7 Ultimate on PC with 1GB of RAM and an Intel Core 2 processor 64 bit version, the frequency 1.67GHz. Totally works. Not worse as the Win XP Pro, what was there previously.
Later I added RAM, but the result changes very little.
So, feel free to put a Windows 7 Home Premium, and if possibly increase the RAM up to 2GB - if possible. For players it is bit few, but for them, who read emails, etc, writes some texts, it's sufficient.

Thanks guys I just installed the Windows 7 Thin PC edition via USB flash drive and I'm really happy with the speed and smoothness. Thanks for making me aware of this great little stripped-down Win7 ISO.

One more question. What is the definitively best method of activating Windows, and keeping it activated? I try various apps and tools but some seem to only last so long before Windows starts moaning about activation.

p.s I never select the ***1033KB WAT update during Windows update, I hide it infact.

If You dont have legal working key, then only Daz loader, and don't try anything other.

You can always test this lite versions HERE . I use myself " Microsoft.Windows.7.SP1.x86.ESD-LiTE8 - 2014.3 " from that site and its BEST lite version I have ever tested so far (and I tested many :D )

I use daz loader too, because it activates without need to install netframework4, which other needs. The only negative about daz loader for me is that after activating I still get message on my screen, that windows is not genuine, which I fix after with app "remove watermark"

goOgle, this past 3 days I have used and installed that Windows 7 lite on approx 7 laptops and netbooks, some good, some old a slow, but one thing has remained constant... that Win7 lite is certainly very quick and well thought-out by the maker. It's definitely now my number one primary OS for any computer repairs. His Windows 7 XP ISO is very buggy, however, so his ISO's are a mixed bag in terms of quality!

thanks!

As for Windows 7 Thin PC I absolutely love the performance and non-blaotedness, and would say it's better than the Windows 7 lite that goOgle recommends, but it has one major flaw and that is that it does not support .net 3.5 so if a customer uses Windows Live Mail it's no good. Anyone know a custom Windows 7 Thin PC ISO that has .net 3.5 integrated in to it? That would blow the Windows 7 lite ISO outa the water!

p.s what do you guys do about Windows updates? Every time I get to desktop after a fresh install of Windows 7 everything runs silky smooth then system speed takes massive hits after each batch of security updates.... really fucking annoying. Are 20+ .net vulnerability patches really fucking neccesary?
