Windows Mard XP is a bootleg Windows XP SP2 edition, which was created by M Ahmed (also known as Mona on the Wincert forums). It released on November 2, 2008, and was added to the archive on February 5, 2023.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO. It adds one theme, and many wallpapers. It updates the icons, and UI a bit. It comes with its own autorun, which is a one-to-one replica of the regular Windows XP setup, only with a different UI and some changed links here and there. It is unattended, and preactivated.

The ISO was made using nLite 1.4.9.1, and the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 7.1.1000.0.
