Creating a custom install disk- what should I include.

Long story short, I registered for my Windows 7 upgrade and overwritten my drive (and my restore partition) with the Windows 7 90-day trial in anticipation. problem is, it is clear that my Windows 7 upgrade kit will not be arriving and my 90-day trial is halfway done. so, I have to reinstall Vista. Unfortunately I do not have a copy of Vista because I wiped my drive and so I have to download it (TO BE ACTIVATED ON MY KEY), and I know for a fact that the generic disks for XP, Vista, and Windows 7 do not have a driver for my SATA controller. this means that I have to insert the driver onto the installation.

Since I have to insert my drive driver onto the installation media, I figure I should include drivers, and what the heck include some applications.
Now, what applications do you recommend for a basic install of Windows Vista Home Premium that does not use a lot of system resources or otherwise are irrlelvent.

So far I have:
GO-OO: An OpenOffice clone that includes needed plugins, such as read/write docx support
Microsoft Security Essentials.

Anything else?
This is a MSI X320, which is basically a 13" netbook. I have an external DVD drive
thanks.

hey.... I just found this , Its a way to extend you 90 days to 120 days (it's not what your looking for)
But it may buy you the time for the post office to deliver ...
Extend the Windows 7 Trial from 30 to 120 Days - the How-To Geek

good luck :D

I believe he may be using 7 Enterprise - that is a 90 day trial.

Can you not reinstall the Enterprise edition and get another 90 days that way?

How were you planning to include applications in the installation media?

Yeay Windows 7 Enterprise.
I could reinstall, but then I have to reinstall all of my software and crap.

I was going to use vlite (ironically) to include drivers and software, and if it cannot include software I was planning on adding a folder labelled "other software" to the disc root folder

And as it turns out the reason my kit didn't proces was because I filled out my cheque incorrwectly - but they were sitting on it since november 12 (when I believe the got it in the mail) and they never bothered to tell me.
Now that I finally found out, I have to send a new cheque via Xpresspost ($15 by itself) to ensure it gets there by wendsday, so hopefully I get my voucher in the mail in time to register on Microsoft's website.
either way, I'll get an installation disk ready to be burned then installed.

so, what's the best software to include?
