I have been using Sysinternals Process Explorer as an alternative to the Windows Task Manager for years now to end hung applications but I have always set this up manually into my own folder in Program Files.
I stumbled upon two great ways to automatically create a Program Files folder while browsing for an up-to-date Sysinternals Addon Builder to use with the RVM Integrator v1.6.1-b21 to add this to my boot CD.
Sadly the latest version by epsilon 3.6 fails on three of the add-ons as they have been moved and OR renamed since it was written you can still create a reduced add-on using this if you ignore these 3 files.
You can now do this much easier after the Windows Install by either downloading this INF file and placing it in the Sysinternals Suite download from HERE simply unzip it and then right click the INF file from explorer.
OR
If you using the same ZIP file as above you can use use the excellent Dark Shadows SSIBuild v2.7 Sysinternals Installer Creator you will also need to download the Microsoft CABSDK and follow his instructions @ MFSN to ensure that you know what you are going to do.
NOTE: you will have to join MFSN to download his Sysinternals.ULZ update list to use with WUD that is normally used to download the latest XPSP3 post downloads for information you need to double click the file to add his list to the Windows Upadate Downloader download link for v2.50-b1000 available at this website.

When installed using your method of preference you will have this great set of applications fully installed and registered and available in the Programs Files folder, the Dark Shadow version will create nested folders and install all the associated help files as well I would use this one after your windows install and not try to slipstream it to your boot CD.
