xisrv32.exe is the NT Service version - you need Administrator/Power User
rights on the system to install and start Xitami as a NT Service.  The
xigui.exe file is probably the way to go.  The xidos32.exe version is going
to be a console version - not a good idea to pop up strange windows, IMO.

As to "minimal" - Xitami's really tiny to begin with - not much to chop
away.  I'd just install the whole package and be done with it.  That said,
I guess you could remove the documentation.

You'll probably want to turn _off_ logging to extend the life of the USB
device.  Flash RAM can only be written to so many times before it wears out.
