Windows XP Game Edition 2010 is a bootleg Windows XP SP3 edition, which was created by VXK SOFT. It released in 2010, and was added to the archive on January 3, 2023.

Description

The bootleg is a stripped down Windows XP SP3 ISO with DriverPack integrated. It styles the OS with a Windows Vista theme and includes many updates.
