Windows XP Fannan NewLook 6 is a bootleg Windows XP SP3 edition, which was created by Ahmed Elfannan. It released on August 7, 2011, and was added to the archive on November 25, 2022.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. It comes with a boot selector integrated. Through it, you can access Symantec Ghost 11.5.1 (cracked, registered to Imran I jaz). You can access it through two different ways, which serve a purpose: to either backup a particular partition on a drive, or restore drive data from a backup. Otherwise, you can access Symantec Ghost normally. You can access the author's email information by simply clicking the author's Live email address.

It comes with many programs, and themes and wallpapers, which is only available in the "New Look" version. All other versions do not have these extras, icons are kept though. The software installer can be accessed later on though, through the new custom autorun that this mod comes with.

On the first boot of the OS, you will be initially presented with a paragraph explaining how the system is designed to be the absolute best possible for the user and how much the author wants you to use it for good and appreciate it out of the goodness of your heart.

Then, you will be presented with 3 possible OS configurations: "SP3", which is just the regular version of "XP Fannan" without any extra content, and the main focus: "New Look", which has all the extra content included. There is also the "Lite" version, which is a stripped down version of "XP Fannan New Look". Only 3 programs from the full version are included, along with AIMP 2.61 build 570 and FannFox lite (based on Mozilla Firefox 4.0.1). It comes with one new default theme. Once you've picked an OS configuration, the configuration process will be started. Depending on what you've selected, it might not take very long. There is a finalization segment to this process, which involves finishing touches, such as installing Internet Explorer 8 and Windows Media Player 11 in the case of "New Look".

Afterwards, you will have to scroll through many pages of information which explain various parts of the OS. One of them being is, you are told to hide the desktop icons in favor of using the bar at the top (in this case, RocketDock) because it's allegedly easier to use. No seriously, that is actually something it encourages. It will also tell you about the "My Computer" toolbar link in the taskbar, where you can use it to access all of your documents and files... through the taskbar. And it will tell you about the user link in the Start menu, where you can access a small collection of programs, and various other things.

After all of that, you will be offered the option to install additional drivers (through Easy Driverpack) or not.

The ISO was made using nLite, and the boot selector used was Aero Studio 2007 2.01.
