'''Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy''' is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows XP|Windows XP SP2]] edition, which was created by [[:Category:Bootlegs created by Benjamin|Benjamin Samson]]. It released on February 2, 2008, and was added to the archive on May 30, 2023.


It is [[:Category:Bootlegs created by Benjamin|Benjamin Samson]]'s first bootleg. It was originally made as a test. He published [[Windows Vista Xtreme Edition]] some months after, which is [[CrustyWindows:Lost bootlegs|currently lost]].
'''Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy''' is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows XP|Windows XP SP2]] edition, which was created by [[:Category:Bootlegs created by Benjamin|Benjamin Samson]]. It released in 2008. It is unattended and preactivated.

This bootleg would set an example on how Benjamin, and soon, his [[:Category:Bootlegs created by Reckons International Team|Rockers International Team]] group would make all their bootlegs afterwards. Things such as the over-the-top branding, extra software and wallpapers, and the autorun format would become staples of Benjamin's bootlegs.


== Description ==
== Description ==
This bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO. It is designed to look like Windows Vista, which was '''extremely''' common for bootlegs created [[Windows XP Full Maza|around]] [[Windows XP Ultimate Edition SP3 Light|this]] [[Windows Vista Black Dream SP2|time]].
This bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO, with many drivers integrated. It comes with a boot selector integrated. Through it, you can boot from the hard disk, install the bootleg or reboot. Not much to say there.

It is intended to be themed after [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows Vista|Windows Vista]], and does it extremely well, which is highly unusual and unprecedented, considering most of all the other bootlegs based on this concept fall way below the mark of looking close to Windows Vista, and do not have this insane amount of attention to detail present in this bootleg. There is even effort put into including accurate recreations of Windows Vista's programs with similar looks and feels to its origin OS! Clearly, [[:Category:Bootlegs created by Benjamin|Benjamin]] studied the ins and outs of Windows Vista very closely, and tried as best as he could to create a realistic looking Windows Vista lookalike in Windows XP, and executed it very well, in ways that no one else could have ever thought to do at the time.

Anyhow, it comes with many new programs, themes and wallpapers, and Windows Vista themed cursors and icons, along with registry tweaks. It has 2 software collections that drop to the Start menu's programs, one in the root of the user's Start menu, and another in the Start menu programs itself, which are subsequently split into their own categories.

It comes with its own autorun, and specialized software packs. Through the autorun, you can access things like Internet Explorer 7 and a "Windows AeroGlass Theme" (which is just WindowBlinds 6.0 build 32 (RR Works Keygen, comes with one skin, AeroGlass)), along with the 2 specialized software collections and their respective autorun loaders. You can also access an instruction guide for the aforementioned "AeroGlass Theme".

It is unattended and preactivated. The bootleg was made using nLite 1.4, the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 7.1.1000.0 (rebranded as Peniel Media Studio 7.0), and the boot selector used was EasyBoot 5.1.0.566. The ISO was touched up with UltraISO 7.6E.

Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy is a bootleg Windows XP SP2 edition, which was created by Benjamin Samson. It released on February 2, 2008, and was added to the archive on May 30, 2023.

It is Benjamin Samson's first bootleg. It was originally made as a test. He published Windows Vista Xtreme Edition some months after, which is currently lost.

This bootleg would set an example on how Benjamin, and soon, his Rockers International Team group would make all their bootlegs afterwards. Things such as the over-the-top branding, extra software and wallpapers, and the autorun format would become staples of Benjamin's bootlegs.

Description

This bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO, with many drivers integrated. It comes with a boot selector integrated. Through it, you can boot from the hard disk, install the bootleg or reboot. Not much to say there.

It is intended to be themed after Windows Vista, and does it extremely well, which is highly unusual and unprecedented, considering most of all the other bootlegs based on this concept fall way below the mark of looking close to Windows Vista, and do not have this insane amount of attention to detail present in this bootleg. There is even effort put into including accurate recreations of Windows Vista's programs with similar looks and feels to its origin OS! Clearly, Benjamin studied the ins and outs of Windows Vista very closely, and tried as best as he could to create a realistic looking Windows Vista lookalike in Windows XP, and executed it very well, in ways that no one else could have ever thought to do at the time.

Anyhow, it comes with many new programs, themes and wallpapers, and Windows Vista themed cursors and icons, along with registry tweaks. It has 2 software collections that drop to the Start menu's programs, one in the root of the user's Start menu, and another in the Start menu programs itself, which are subsequently split into their own categories.

It comes with its own autorun, and specialized software packs. Through the autorun, you can access things like Internet Explorer 7 and a "Windows AeroGlass Theme" (which is just WindowBlinds 6.0 build 32 (RR Works Keygen, comes with one skin, AeroGlass)), along with the 2 specialized software collections and their respective autorun loaders. You can also access an instruction guide for the aforementioned "AeroGlass Theme".

It is unattended and preactivated. The bootleg was made using nLite 1.4, the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 7.1.1000.0 (rebranded as Peniel Media Studio 7.0), and the boot selector used was EasyBoot 5.1.0.566. The ISO was touched up with UltraISO 7.6E.

Changes from Windows XP SP2

Minor changes

  • The text-mode setup OS text is changed to "Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy By Benjamin Samson". All mentions of the OS have also been changed to the bootleg's name. One of the mentions had a line break up into two because it was so big.

Bootleg quirks

  • The setup billboard text shows faking the registered symbol with a @ symbol.

  • The login screen logo has the OS name written on it. It is similarly styled to Windows Vista's logo on the bottom. The "Fancy" is written in a script font, where the last letter is cut off slightly at the bottom.
  • Most of the available gadgets are broken or do not work at all.
  • Although you can freely change the displayed avatar in the Welcome center, it will not have any effect on the actual user avatar.
  • It is fully possible to freely move the "Welcome Center" text and the Right arrow before it in the Welcome center, which is the only real flaw of the program.
  • IDM is supposed to have a crack registered to "MerCuRy", but it gets overwritten with "MiKiCuN MiKiCuN" instead.
  • The "Ultimate Fancy" theme is a duplicate of "Vista Ultimate".
  • The C: drive has its own folder background.
  • The command prompt colors are set to gray on purple.

CD contents and other info

  • The entirety of the EZBOOT directory is hidden.
