    Hello, I'm new to Windows and really like it....I use Mac mainly so now i use them in tandem.
    The question i have is, how can i create a stripped down windows installer for music production? Also what to strip out. I want to minimize the processes while working on my windows machine...
    Can anyone help?

    Thanks...I actually bought that program.
    But do you know what exactly I need to remove?

    services (many of them), network things, biometry shit and things, controllers that You don`t need, security stuff, and so on...

    Every system is specific, depending on what hardware You have and what You are going to use Your OS for, except Audio.

    Black Viper had a comprehensive list of some things You can remove Link: http://www.blackviper.com/

    but trial and error is the common way to go: remove some things, and check if it still works for Your needs.

    Good luck!
