nLited XP installs for a cab

Ya I know what you meant. The reason is that I deleted everything having to do with networking.

Your adapter can physically be attached to your PC, but without any networking component, it's as useless as tits on a bull. You'll also need the Wireless Zero (IIRC, that's the service) service enabled if you can add the networking components back in. Just so's you don't end up pulling your hair out ;D

OK, I'm late to the game but have started messing with Nlite.
While it would have been much easier to simply use a version of TinyXP, I think the author removes too many drivers. His releases can't be tested in Virtual PC 2004 because those drivers are missing. Also I want to integrate "Minlogon" and "SP3". In my benchmarks I found that SP3 is faster than SP2, also I can imagine it adds lots of hardware support that is good for installing XP on newer machines. I like to add Bashrat's driverpacks too.
While testing an Nlite build in Virtual PC 2004, I discovered that Virtual PC 2004 does not support Direct3D. So for the newer MAME's that use direct3D you have to tell it to use GDI instead.
Also Minlogon can be slipstreamed via Nlite as a "hotfix".
Here is the Minlogon manual package (for existing installations):

Here is the Minlogon "hotfix" package (for slipstreaming with Nlite)**:

Minlogon is truly fantastic for a MAME cab! It's so fast and no "log in" required.

** Windows File Protection must be disabled in Nlite for that to work. This is found in Nlite under "options / patches"

Thank you for the files. Anyways has sp3 been officially released?
spystyle:
I think SP3 is still beta, but I have installed it on several new PCs (rescuing them for suXy Vista)
It can be downloaded here:

In my benchmark tests it was faster than SP2.
