Some days ago I posted that I was not able to install SP2 on our Dell D800. Well, after surfing the web some more while waiting for Dell to send me a CD which includes SP2 already (my previous post) I have found a very cool application which allow for a customized Windows Installation! Yes true, one can have its own Windows installation made with NLite.
First I was skeptical but then thought I will give it a try and since NLite is a free tool there is nothing to loose. Ok, so I downloaded it the application installed it and started it up. First of all I was very impressed by the nice GUI and the option it offered. Anyhow, I inserted my Dell CD which only included SP1 and then told NLite that I want to include SP2 on this installer. After some confirmation dialogs it took about 5 minutes and Nlite told me to insert a blank CD for burning (you can also save it to an image file). Another 4 minutes and I had a full Window installer with SP2 already on it.
Needless to say that the whole installation was smooth and our D800 is now running happily (well more or less with Windows).
NLite can be downloaded from http://www.nliteos.com/.
