It came out 8 months after this bootleg did. The concept is executed a lot better (because unlike this mod there aren't any "mini-bootlegs" (individual modified XP distributions coming in various themes), but rather use the OS look configuration system instead which is much more efficient), and there is more effort put into it. It has more programs than this bootleg does. ▲'''Windows XP Crazy Mouse''' (also known as '''Windows Crazy Mouse XP 2013''') is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows XP\|Windows XP SP3]] edition, which was created by Mahmoud Gamal (full name: Mahmoud Gamal Abd Elati). It released on October 30, 2012, and was added to the archive on July 20, 2023. Other people have also used assets from this bootleg, such as [[Windows Al-Mohtaref]] and [[Windows Fouda XP 2012]], and more. This bootleg is one of the more popular ones for asset ripping, and would soon become inspiration for many bootleggers. There is [[Windows Galaxy XP 2013\|another bootleg which serves a similar purpose]] (as a matter of fact, it uses assets from this bootleg) made by the same person, which came out 8 months after this bootleg did. It has more effort put into it, with more programs added. Other people have also used assets from this bootleg, such as [[Windows Al-Mohtaref]] and [[Windows Fouda XP 2012]]. == Description == The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. It comes with a boot selector. Through it, you can access useful utilities like Partition Magic 8.0 Build 1242 (mislabeled as Partition Magic 8.5), Norton Ghost 2003 (cracked, registered to lk of bap) and a DOS shell (a Windows 98 boot disk). There are 9 different "mini bootlegs" bundled, ~~along with 9 more~~ which ~~are packed~~come with extra programs. You can ~~choose~~pick towhich ~~install~~"mini bootleg" you want through the ~~regular~~boot ~~bootleg~~selector, along with the extra programs if you wish. You can also just install the regular bootleg, if you so desire. The "mini bootlegs" all serve various purposes, such as "Arabic Screen" being an Arabic version of English Windows XP (which is done by automatically applying the Arabic language on startup), and "Crystal" being Windows XP, with the CrystalXP.net theme applied onto it. Most of them have ~~many~~ consistencies between them, such as always changing the text-mode setup OS text, and changing the full name and organization. ItThe ~~comes~~bootleg ~~with~~itself ~~its~~isn't ~~own~~all ~~autorun.~~that ~~Through~~special - it, ~~you~~just ~~can~~comes ~~access~~with ~~things~~a ~~like~~new ~~.NET~~look, ~~Framework~~an 2icon ~~and 4~~set, ~~and~~a ~~install~~Windows ~~the~~7 sound scheme, and ~~included~~some programs. It comes with one theme and wallpaper, and changed up graphics slightly. It comes with registry tweaks. It iscomes ~~unattended~~with its own autorun. Through it, you can access .NET Framework 2 and ~~preactivated~~4, and install the extra programs. It is unattended, and preactivated.
