The earliest releases date back to [{{link\|https://web.archive.org/web/20071026093017/http://picoxp.boot-land.net/ \|October 26, 2007]}} and was added to the archive on November 23, 2022. It is an extremely minimal CD, only taking up about 15 MB. To be more specific, PicoXP is a WinBuilder project that can be used to generate minimal Windows XP live CDs. == Description == The bootleg is similar to Windows PE, but with everything removed (and we do mean '''everything'''). To the point where window titles don't even display properly because there aren't any fonts! Because so many features have been stripped from the OS, only absolute core programs such as cmd, winlogon, and ntoskrnl will actually run, and pretty much all but the most simple programs will error out due to missing DLLs or API calls. The mod is intended to be the successor/replacement of [{{link\|https://reboot.pro/index.php?s=3eba5934a6a9c28e93a3ab67c6cf6aaa&showtopic=12 \|NanoXP]}}, although the build sizes seem to be around the same. The ISO was built using WinBuilder 0.82, a Windows boot disk builder.
