nLite helps with reinstalling my OS.

My work computer has been out of commission for the last 1.5 weeks. The motherboard died. Dell came out and replaced it for me which I'm glad I decided to have them do because, as it turns out, there's more problems with it. I'll be getting a brand new computer with a week or two.

In the mean time I get to use my computer but I had to start fresh with a new hard drive. It's a good thing I made an image cd with nLite.

Have you ever wanted to remove Windows components like Media Player, Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, MSN Explorer, Messenger...
How about not even to install them with Windows ?

nLite is a tool for pre-installation Windows configuration and component removal at your choice. Optional bootable image ready for burning on media or testing in virtual machines.
With nLite you will be able to have Windows installation which on install does not include, or even contain on media, the unwanted components.

Using nLite to make an image cd BEFORE the emergency was smart. I configured my install cd to include the install of CCleaner, Firefox, Defraggler, Recuva, Mediamonkey and others.

nLite worked so well I will be making install cds for all the computers here in my office. I suggest you at try it out.
