Really not sure why you're trying to make the Windows footprint as small as possible, but try to keep related stuff in one posting.

Also, if you're really looking for a small footprint, you may wish to look at WindowsPE, see if that suites your needs better.

Honestly, with hard drive prices as cheap as they are now, I really see no good point to risk losing system functionality/stability in the name of saving a few hundred megabytes.
