GamerOS Windows 10 & 11 DIY Preset

You're missing the point. NTLite primarily isn't about rolling out scripts or tweaks, it's core function is to remove Features and Components from the install image. What gets removed can trigger compatibility issues, depending on the choices being made.

Most of the removals are carefully selected, but some combinations can break for specific user scenarios. For example, laptops that use advanced features like ambient light controls, screen orientation, etc. may stop working because the preset favors someone using a desktop PC.

A number of casual visitors will jump in with presumptions without spending the research time. Is GamerOS an imperfect project because it's home grown? Definitely, and it's currently without a project owner.

The whole justification for NTLite is with presets, you can modify them to add or remove what you need. GamerOS is presented as a (mostly) working example that you can use as a baseline.

But it's like all Windows modding projects or pre-made ISO's, some of the design choices may not work out for you; but NTLite offers the opportunity to go back and fix those problems.

Well, what is this for? I've been doing builds for about ten years now and have never had a problem. And now I’m working on my 24H2 IoT LTSC assembly, it works great. I make my own sides with my own scripts, but then I became interested in this topic, I decided to try it, but it’s a bummer - it’s a shame. And yes, the dryer has nothing to do with it at all. There's something different here. I was hoping that they would help here, but I see that they won’t.

The initial suggestion was to do an A/B comparison between a clean, freshly installed image and a modified image. This is to narrow down the possible causes of the flickering as otherwise, we may as well be searching for a needle in a haystack. Video drivers come to mind to, but the preset does not touch video drivers as far as I can tell.

No, that's not the point. I have the same 24H2 IoT LTSC build installed, just done with my scripts and everything works well. So I decided to try your method, apparently it wasn’t fate: https://ibb.co/zF8cnht
Today I updated via the Update Center: https://ibb.co/dPz26bL

Besides, this is not my first experience working with GamerOS. I tried it about a year ago, and the result was the same - normal OS installation, but a cyclically blinking monitor. I thought, what if something has changed in a year, no, but things are still there.

The only thing that raises doubts is that I used the free version of NTLite both for the first time and now. Perhaps she broke something there? I installed the paid licensed version of NTLite, I’ll try it, maybe this is the problem?

There was a previous discussion, starting on post #926.

I believe you need to restore two components:
Code: 
                <c>Microsoft.XboxGameCallableUI 'Xbox Game UI'</c>
                <c>graphicsperfsvc 'Graphics performance monitor service'</c>
 
Can anyone view this configuration and let me know if there's anything I'll need? I don't need anything. intel - bluetooth - print - remote desktop - virtualization - ir stuff (OR XBox Related drivers and components) I need a bare bones preset only for gaming and browsing the internet, downloading, and updating driver settings. support file explorer functionality, but every time I think I got everything that I won't need, it won't boot into the windows. It's stuck on; please wait. I intend on using wireless Internet as I'm too far from my modem to use Ethernet (removed all Ethernet functionality).

Too kinda further explain the extra services seem to be OK as I didn't disable anything that could potentialy brick anything services have junk services disabled in my opinion.. BUT the components is what is the most infuriating thing to bewelder due to it being so percise in what can completly ruin the windows boot process I HATE WINDOWS 11 but need it due to WIFI 7 only being for Windows 11 otherwise I'd use my windows 10 config for my Windows 10 install but sadly can't due to this Network Adapter only being for Win11 SO now It's been a whole week an a half reconfiguring this image and getting certain things to work and not work and I'm in need of help before I give up and just install this base image of a custom win11 build with bloat I don't need :(

If you disable the TPM in the Bios, will this latest GamerOS profile for Windows 11 pass the installation?

W11's Setup.exe is responsible for enforcing all HW requirements, including TPM.

For a clean install, the bypasses are applied to boot.wim, where WinPE Setup runs from.
For an in-place upgrade, the bypasses are applied to the live host, where Setup runs froms.

When you build a W11 preset, it's common to apply the bypasses to boot.wim at the same time to save yourself an extra step of loading boot.wim separately. But it's nothing specific to GamerOS or another W11 install image.

SPP (Software Protection Platform) service is mandatory, it's manages Windows licensing.
 
If you're having more problems, remove all the Services (not Extra Services) changes. Most of them appear fine, but I can't guarantee it.

I'll leave it for now I re-enabled SPP upon your suggestion to kinda explain why I disabled all those services some are just not what I need due it never even being used cause I don't have a laptop nor due I use my phone for CDMA connection or use a proxy or ever run into a fault with windows cause I never update my windows image.

Here is the preset I am using. I running this over IoT LTSC 2021. As I have stated I narrowed the problem down to lines 443-496. The only change I am making before applying it removing the line that removes UPnP Device Host.

Again the problem is that Network Status says No Internet Status, Windows activations shows unable to reach Windows activation servers, and Xbox Networking says Server activity is Blocked.

Edit: Further narrowed the problem to lines 470-496 (Distributed transaction coordinator - photoviewer)

Your going to have to reenable <c>deliveryoptimization 'Delivery Optimization'</c> &
<c>microsoft.windows.contentdeliverymanager 'Content Delivery Manager'</c> to let it download from the MS Store.

You should be able to leave all tweeks to stop it from installing the bloatware.

Delivery Optimization is the default method for downloading Store Apps, but Content Delivery Manager isn't involved with Xbox Games.
 
There's none - it's locked by Compatillity by Recommended and Netflix. And think NUHI is busy fixing 24H2 problems.
So patience is a virtue.
