nLited XP installs for a cab

You can Google up Black Viper's guides to disable services post-install (easy)

Or you can follow my guide to do it pre-install with Nlite (harder)

Cheers,

Perhaps this isn't so, but it seems to there is greater effect selecting services pre-install. If this isn't so, then I would probably do it post, in case you ever needed those things.

Justin:
I created an Nlited version of XP today and when I run mame.exe (DOS VERSION) it says it is not a valid windows application.    the exact same file, from same hard drive, runs perfectly on my regular win xp install.

I wonder what I trimmed from nlite that is breaking this exe?!

spystyle:
There are several version of MAME

MAME command line for Windows (this is what you seek)

Grab the version that matches your rom set here :

MAME for DOS (it's command line of course)

MAME32 (now called MAMEui) is for windows and a graphical interface, it's great, try it!

I like to couple command line MAME with MALA front end, and use Blue skin

Also if MAME-XP is too stripped down for your application, you could just install regular XP and follow BlackViper's guide to slim it :

Keep me posted :)

tommyinajar:
In regards to the Black Viper guide, wasn't there some ".Bat" files to quickly turn off  or restore the services for different levels of slimming, to see what works for you? I can't find them, I thought I had them somewhere...
