    I just read about this software, where to find a safe download and what is the main difference with the full XP ?

    Can I boot it seperately like Ubuntu on the HD or from a UBS stick ?

    I'm not sure if we can discuss this, cause TinyXP is an illegal version of Windows XP. But basicaly, TinyXP is good, especially on early netbooks or old hardware (with 4GB space and stuff).

    Just get full XP, the only version of Vista that needs the "Tiny" version is Vista.

    Where to geti t? I can't tell yah. PM me hehe.

    If you are to pirate and steal software, the least you can do is figuring out stuff like this your self.

    Anyway, its not permitted to discuss it here.

    Download nLite from http://www.nliteos.com/ and trim down your own Windows XP install disk, with your own license code :)

    Yes, discussion of software piracy is against the forum rules. If you want to discuss using nlite to trim a windows install, create a new thread.
