First, the software is installed and finished


First of all, we need to nLite installed into the system, because the software required to support .NET Framework, if you had not installed Please download it from

In the interface, select “SimpChinese” or “Simplified Chinese” in the “Language” drop-down list box to switch to the familiar Simplified Chinese interface.


Second, the relevant preparatory work


Next, we should do some related preparatory work:

1.Windows XP installation File: Find a partition with a large amount of free space on the hard disk, create a temporary folder, such as d:\\winxp, and then copy all the files on the Windows XP installation CD to this folder.

2.Windows XP SP2: download SP2 installation file, being careful not to run directly, not needed for decompression.

3. Driver: prepared in advance need to be integrated into the device driver installation file can be copied from the CD-ROM drive or downloaded from the manufacturer's Web site, if a ZIP archive, please release to a temporary folder Medium, but must include an INF file.




Third, the rapid evolution novice

Here, the author describes nLite of power by a few examples:

Example one: to integrate SP2 patch to the installation file
< BR>
Click the "Browse" button to locate the d:\\winxp folder. nLite will scan this folder in real time, as shown in Figure 3. After the scan is finished, the machine will be displayed in the "Information" column. Information about the installed operating system version, file size, and remaining space.


Next, select the downloaded SP2 installation file: WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-CHS_skycn.exe,, after the end of the scan will automatically begin to integrate shown in Figure 4, you will see later on map 5 screen, so far the integration process is over, eliminating the need to manually execute the update.exe command integration. After



return to the main screen, you can see the Windows XP version has been upgraded to Windows XP Professional SP2 - build 2180 (623MB). Follow the same steps, you can also integrate the Hotfix program, not much to say here.




Example 2: The integrated device driver installation file to


While Windows XP no hardware identification Ellenby, but after all, there are still many times when you need to install drivers, such as graphics cards, USB connection devices, sound cards, etc. We can integrate the drivers of these devices into the installation files beforehand, so that the drivers will be installed automatically after the Windows XP installation is over. The program saves the trouble of manual installation.

Download the driver that needs to be integrated beforehand. As shown in Figure 6, click the "Insert" button to find the INF file of the driver. If you need to integrate multiple drivers, please continue to click the "Insert" button. However, when integrating the drivers, please pay attention to the normal installation sequence, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble when you install the system later.


Three examples: from the installation files to remove unnecessary components


In fact, Windows XP has a lot of components that we do not need, and why Don't remove it from the system? Instead of manually removing it afterwards, it is better to clean it before installation.

Enter the window of Figure 7, where the corresponding system components are selected. After selecting an item, the corresponding description information will be displayed in the right pane. These selected components will be removed from the installation folder. If an item is grayed out, it means it is a key service of the system. It is recommended not to remove it easily. Here, the author introduces the system components may be removed:



application: You can not remove the common accessibility options here, NT Backup, 3D Pinball and other procedures.

Driver: If you are not using a laptop, you can remove drivers for your battery, Bluetooth support, Firewire (1394), IBM Thinkpad, infrared, SCSI card, wireless network and more.

Internet tools: You can choose to remove FrontPage Extensions, IIS (Internet Information Services), Internet Pringing, Windows Messenger, Network Monitor and other components.




Language Support: In general, we just need to keep Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Japanese, and other input method editor limited to a few.

Multimedia: Here, you can remove Media Center, Tablet PC, after all, few domestic users can actually use the media center computer and Tablet PC, you can also remove music samples, old-fashioned CD players and recorders Projects such as the Roland Sound Canvas sample set.

operating system options: Here, you can choose to remove administrator VB script, DR Watson, MS Agent, roaming these rarely used items, if you do not like Windows XP built-in compression support, Remove the Zip folder.

Service: In addition to those gray items, the rest of the service can be removed if you don't need it.

Directory: Here are mainly VALUEADD, SUPPORT, DOCS three folders, you can choose to remove.

If you feel that you are not sure, you can use the system recommended settings directly, just select "Recommended" in the mode selection drop-down list box at the bottom of the window. In addition, we can also set the option for unattended installation, but if you have a RAID/SATA device, do not use it.

Four examples: make the installation process more personalized


by some settings and adjustments, we can make the Windows XP installation process more personal, such as classic installation Interface, disable SFC, enable support for unauthenticated themes, remove duplicate files, retain the keyboard layout of the removed language, play the installation music, etc. Here you can also set the maximum number of unfinished concurrent connections.

After the above setting work is completed, nLite will ask whether to apply the changes. After confirming, you will see the screen shown in Figure 8. The next thing you need to do is wait patiently. Because the transformation operation requires a certain amount of system resources, So please close other applications that are running as well beforehand. After the transformation is completed, you can create it as an ISO image file. After the test is successful, you can burn the CD.
