Wheres the version for those who are forced to use it due to DX10 and the (eventual) no drivers etc for anything else, but don't want all the crap?

It's still in the beta stages, but you can remove a lot of that crap . :) If you have 2000/XP/2003, then nLite (http://www . nliteos . com/) can do the same thing for those OSes . |
